Pain underneath my tongue!?
This may sound werid, but i noticed that yesterday after coming home from a dentist appointment, my tongue hurt to lift it up to the roof of my mouth. You know how you have that web underneath your tongue, well i have a big swollen red bump there now, and when i lift my tongue up, it hurts, bc its pulling my skin thats connected to the gums on the back side of my bottom teeth.
anyone have this before? im worried. i dont drink i dont smoke, and the only time i noticed this was yesterday after i got my cavities filled....am i gonig nuts here or is there someone out there who has had this before? should i see a doctor?

There is a salivary gland under your tongue and I've heard that you can get a clogged salivary duct there. I have no experience with this--it's just something I've heard of. Call the dentist and tell them your symptoms. It sounds like something that is best taken care of asap. Best of luck to you.

The dentist that you just came from probably knows. If you were numb, they do all kinds of stuff thinking it will never hurt. Guess what, it hurts when the numbness wears off. Go back and see dentist.

It could be from the numbing medicine that they use maybe you had a reaction from it. I would go back to that dentist and have him look at it. If you did not have it when you went there then something must have happened when you were there.

I'm guessing that your salivary gland is infected; try rinsing with salty water until you can get to your doctor/dentist.
