Ulcer on tounge?


Question:
think I have a tiny ulcer on the underside of my tounge, its a bit painful, any ideas on how it got there? how long it will last there? what I can do to make it goa way or ease the pain? ive has ulcers in my mouth before, but this is the first time ive had one on my tounge

Answers:
Oh I've had those before.. goes away in a day or 2 usually for me. Don't worry about it, unless it's really bothering you, swells badly or is recurring (I mean more than once or twice a year).. You could always ask your doc about it on your next checkup, but if it's just a little painful bump (ulcer) that goes away in a day or 2, I wouldn't worry about it. Good luck! :o)
