If is gets any worse we're to go to the ER. The physician is not sure if the swollen tongue is from an allergic reaction or the radiation. My husband doesn't thinks it's an allergic reaction because he hasn't taken any new meds in the last several days or eaten any new foods. I'll watch him closely today. Thank you!!
