A member asked:
I have a growth on my tongue located near the throat. it is painless and i don't feel anything. should i be worried?

Have it examined: Just because it is painless and you don't feel anything doesn't mean it is ok. If it is not a normal part of your anatomy a decision needs to be made as to how it formed and if it needs treatment.

See your dentist: We can't diagnose these types of situations over the internet without actually being able to see them. You should see your dentist to determine whether or not what you see is normal anatomy or not, and if not, what treatment, if any, would be appropriate.
