I have a small growth attached to the back of my tongue that has a yellow mass growing on it. What could be the cause? And is there a name for it?

Hello, Annie! How are you?

According to NIH recommendations, it would be best for you to consult your doctor and have it checked out. That is something you should do any time you experience some type of growth, or any symptom that is more severe than usual, or totally new for you.

Has there been any change? How large is the mass? Are you on any medications?
