Lumps near back of tongue
I have been experiencing a persistent cold, lump in the back of my throat and mouth pain. I have two lumps appeared on one side of my tongue quite far back, so they are not clearly visible without being looked for. I worry it may be tongue cancer due to the appearance and symptoms. I have an image of the lumps.
