If you have a new spot on your tongue, get it checked out. The rule is....any sore you have in your mouth for 2 weeks or longer needs to be checked by a professional. I would suggest seeing your ENT. Thats who manages my care, I see mine every 3 months. At this point you still should be seeing them fairly often probably about every other month unless you have any changes. Give them a call and get checked out to help ease your mind.
