Anyone had a lump under their tongue?

[Coffeeandaworry]

My GP said it's not concerning looking and to contact her in a few weeks and update if its grown.

I just can't leave it alone! Possible it's been there ages and I've just noticed, but I can't help but feel anxious. Anyone had anything similar?

Yup! Had it for years, I just ignore it

Like mine biscuits?

I hate being told to report if it's bigger. All day I'm 'checking' if it feels bigger

It's literally exactly the same, same side too! I've always assumed it was a gland or something. I'll try and take a picture but I'm in bed, 2 secs...

Yes, I've had maybe 3 over the last 10 years. Mine was more blister like and round. Noticable as something new, but would always go within weeks of feeling it. I happened to have one when I saw the dentist one time about something different.

Dentist did a test with a special light which seemed a lot of extra cash at the time. I had to go through a load of questions- alcohol intake, lifestyle, smoking history etc. He then referred me to a specialist at the hospital. It took maybe 4mths to see the specialist. The actual blister thing had completely disapeared about 2 weeks after I found it, and the specialist rolled his eyes and basically blamed dentists for sending wrong referrals to him all day!!!!

OP- it could be a blocked salivary gland. Are you considered high risk for anything sinister? Older age, long term smoker or drinker? Have you had similar before? I find it really difficult to ignore any issue in my mouth. My tongue seems to creep towards the issue without me noticing and its such a nuisance. (burnt roof of mouth, rough tooth, ulcer etc).

Hopefully its something simple that goes very soon x

Tried to get a picture on selfie mode but I think I need a mirror. I'll take one in the morning for you.

Wouldn't have thought it was anything to worry about, but if you are concerned / it doesn't go, it's dentist not GP you need to see as dentist is mouth expert. It's probably just a blocked gland and will just go. Hope it's gone soon.

I had exactly this Christmas day. It went down overnight and appeared again Boxing day. Went down again and hasn't come back since. I also wondered if it had been there all the time but I'm sure it wasn't. Wait and see op it may just disappear.

i have similar type of blister on the floor of my mouth. It’s been there for a week now. Has anyone had similar to this and hope it’s nothing to worry. I don’t smoke or drink.

I started getting a lump, it seemed to come and go, this year, was booked into dentist for check up and explained it, the dentist said "it feels more pronounced" which was the exact word I was looking for.

She felt the area and said I have no concerns, keep a mental record on how much it comes and goes, for a few days after the prodding it felt more pronounced but over time it has now settled. This only happened since I had COVID, think it is a gland and when I am a bit run down it pronounces.

Dentist did say if it gets worse to go to GP and they will ask has a dentist looked at it.

But it seems to have been settled for a few weeks now.

Doesn't appear to be anything sinister.

So try and leave it if you can feel it. Note if, how often/long you can feel it and mention to your dentist next check up

I had this exactly where you have , it's ditto same like yours, I am worried about it , my tongue always reaches there to make me notice it , please tell me what it exactly is if you are aware of what it is ?

how are you now
i have that too

I have one of these. Its just a tiny hard bump thats painless. Is it normal?
