White bump (sore) on tongue.

[pauleen]

A few times a year I get this little white bump on my tongue!  It is an enlarged, and SORE little round taste bud.  Sometimes I will get two or three - sometimes one.  They are quite annoying and irritated by my teeth and of course anything acidic, or hot.  I have tried snapping them off with nail clippers.  It hurts like heck - but then begins the healing process.  I haven't found a diagnosis and/or treatment for them yet.  I've googled it, and heard similar reports as mine from other people and even reports of toddlers who get it.

WHEN I am at my oral surgeons, there isn't one - SO - it remains anonymous.  Would love to hear any cures or helpful  tips!

Good lord... Is that advanced Ebonics? You probably shouldn't 'link' with your 'boi' anymore. It's optimal if you know how to fill out a birth certificate before you multiply.

Seriously, I think I just got dumber reading that initial post.  Obama shouldn't be so worried about healthcare reform and invest more money in education.  Then again, they would actually have to learn proper english to hold a real job and provide for themselves.  I guess putting it on the tax payers that actually went to school and educated themselves sounds like a better idea.

seriously tho it just sounds like a swollen taste bud.... dont clip them with nail clippers 1- that is just gross, and 2- you can get a seriously nasty infection..... have you been to the dentist?
