Seek professional advice if the bumps:
Persist for more than two weeks
Are painful or bleeding
Are accompanied by fever or other unusual symptoms
Appear suddenly and spread quickly
Tips for Relief and Prevention
Maintain good oral hygiene: brush your tongue gently and floss daily
Avoid very spicy, acidic, or hot foods if irritated
Stay hydrated
Use a mild mouthwash to reduce bacteria
Ensure adequate intake of vitamins and minerals
Conclusion
While little bumps on the tongue are often harmless, they can signal nutritional deficiencies, infections, or irritation. Paying attention to changes in your tongue’s appearance is important for maintaining overall health. If you are concerned, consult a healthcare professional for proper evaluation.
