hi. i have 3 small, white bumps on the side of my tongue near the back. they kinda hurt. i noticed my tongue had a strange feeling while i was drinking a beer a few days ago, and i was wondering if it is possible that the beer caused the white bumps. if not, what else could it be? it is not oral thrush i just looked up pictures.

I don't know.. I used to get something similar after I drank orange juice or anything too acidic.. I don't think the beer probably caused it, but perhaps they were there and you didn't feel them until the carbonated water in the beer hit your tongue.. I've heard they can also be caused by a virus.. so if it persists, see your doctor.. I managed mine by drinking milk after anything acidic..

They are called Canker sores, or ulcers. Not Cancer. Just ask the druggist, he can suggest an over the counter remedy.
