I have a lump inside my tongue that started as a mild soreness last night and now is taking up about a quarter of my tongue. It s not visible but my tongue feels swollen and has a hard lump inside on the right side. I had severe tonsilitis a few weeks ago and have had a sore throat ever since, but no tongue problems before this.
