I have been watching this whitish area on the side of my tongue for quite sometime. Making sure it does not grow, and it hadn't been until this morning. I looked at it this morning and it was noticeably bigger. Have a dentist appt, on Monday so I will have him look at it. MY ENT appt is now until the 20th.
To add to this I have been having intermittent pain in that area and in my ear again. The last few days I wake up to horrendous neck pain. I keep thinking it is a muscle spasming, because I have to turn my head and tweak it a little to get the pain to stop. So I am going to have my dentist take a look at it on Monday as well as repair a crack in my tooth. Will see my ENT a week after that if the dentist is not concerned. May move up my ENT appt if anything changes drastically over the weekend. Keeping my fingers crossed that it is nothing.
