There is a hardened groove along the tongue, where the tongue & tooth meet. There is a fairly consistent dull pain, throbs once in a while, which seems lesser than what it did before my diagnosis... But, I am worried.

Many patients will have scar tissue build up around any surgery sites and it can become painful. Go back to your ENT to have it looked at. Sometimes they will need to surgically remove the scar tissue.
