HI, Dear,Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor.1-I have studied your query in depth.2-DEar,IN my opinion, this black lump in tongue with much swelling on one side, could be resolving hematoma out of traumatized tongue with hidden venous malformations/ or traumatized hidden hematoma in the tongue, which got popped up post-chemical or physical trauma-toungue bite.3-Tumour gone down with a pea sized lump in your toungue-which is black, confirms the possibility of tongue hematoma or /venous malformation which has become express 12 days back and now reduced to its real pea size.4-hidden AV malformations, vascular malformations of tongue could lead to such black lump with short history.5-Surgeon would fix the diagnosis of the black lump in tongue and would treat accordingly. I would advise you to consult ER surgeon UGLY.6-Hope this would solve your query to your satisfaction.7-Wellcome for more queries to me On Chat Doctor.8-Thnks once again for your inquisitive query. Have a Good Day.!!
