White bump on Tongue, should I be worried (warning, pic!)

Got this bump on my tongue which is sore
was surprised when I looked as normally little sore ulcers feel big but when you look are really tiny, but this is quite large!
it’s uncomfortable.

should I be concerned and get it checked out?
anything I could put on it to help it heal/go down in the mean time?

im 42, non smoker, drink moderately (1 bottle of wine a week normally)

I get this in conjunction with a sore throat normally. Are you run down at the moment?

Probably bitten it

Feeling ok physically but have had an incredibly stressful couple of weeks (divorce negotiations, house purchase, really difficult ex) and my youngest dd has a cold at the moment so wondering if that’s brewing

I'd try corsodyl mouthwash for a few days. It'll sting like hell but most likely to make a difference

Thank you, I’ll pick some up tomorrow

If it is still there in a couple of weeks you need to make an appointment with your dentist
