For the past few days the bumps on the back of my tongue have been swollen and hurting just a little bit. they are where my skin connects to my tongue and its hard to the touch.
Dear welcome to Chat Doctor I just wanted to say that they are "circumvallate papillae" and why they have enlarged, if systemic salivary gland problems can cause the enlarging of to circumvallate papillae. You May have habit of chewing tobacco or smoking, it may be due to infection please consult your doctor nearby for details thanks
