If you have a BUMP ON YOUR TONGUE, do you sound like Jar-Jar Binks?
I don't, but I have a nasty painful one right now (it doesn't feel any better after I poured hot capuccino over it either!).
My dad told me when I was little that these were 'lie bumps' that came up when you told lies. I didn't really believe him, but I still call them lie bumps. What do you call them? 'chronic-virus-that-can-be-treated-by-acidolpholus-buttermilk'?
I don't think I've ever had a bump on my tongue. I've burnt it a few times eating/drinking hot thing, though. :jess:
I call them acid bumps or canker sores. They're caused by dirty mouths, you dirty Allie. Cold sores are caused by viruses and they're on the outside of your mouth.
I call it Herpes.
that's fever blisters, rantzien
When I get a bump on my toungue I keep biting it and that doesn't help.
You're the expert.Quote:

Worst canker sore where like three, one near the bottom lip, one at the gum opposite the canker on the lip, and one that went dangerously in my throat. I got all nervous and panicky. It all went away after gargling mouthwash for a week.
I've only had them once, and I think it was because I was chewing on my tongue. Why, I have no idea.

You mean the broken tastebuds? Like if you get a tiny bump on your tongue? I disinfect my nail clippers, clip it off, and disinfect again:p Doesn't hurt as much as you'd think, and it heals over pretty quick so it doesn't hurt for as long as it would if you just let the bump stay.
I get canker sores too, they freaking suck. In fact, two weeks ago I bit the inside of my lower lip hard core, like really hard core. There's still a deep cut there, and it hurts like a mother:(
That's what they are, broken tastebuds? I learned something today :pQuote:

We call them mouth ulcers here. And yes, they suck.
Go lick a tube of bonjela.
My tongue is unique. :cool:
There's a BoB/clone joke somewhere in there....:shifty:Quote:

If I get an ulcer on my tongue (the most common type of 'tongue bump' for me), I just rupture it and make sure it's clean. It hurts for a moment, but the overall discomfort is far less than trying to put up with it.
Who is this Jar-Jar Banks you speak of? No such character ever existed.
Obligatory post by me.
LOL :pQuote:

I call them "what what in the tongue"? {never really had one though}
I get that too!Quote:

I had one of the back of my tongue recently. It was really irritating ;_;
