I have this swelling on the front right side of my tongue that was not there three weeks ago. It is getting bigger by the day. I have an appt. with my ENT Wednesday and a call into my RO and waiting on a call back. I thought that it might have been from radiation, but I just saw it yesterday and it is bigger today. It looks strange too. How do I know flip out? I thought that radiation was supposed to get rid of all this crap. I am scared to death of what this could be.
