Does anyone know of a treatment those things I call "swollen" tastebuds? I've got one on the side of my tongue that keeps hitting my teeth and causing a lot of discomfort.

I don't have a cure but my family has jokingly called them "lie bumps" for generations. I think it was a way for our grandmothers to see if we had a guilty conscience if we suspected we really got punished for telling a story.

MHS, that's a crack-up! A friend of mine told his kids that when they lie a red dot appears on their foreheads. He knows when they're lying now because they talk to him with their hands on their heads.

I would recommend rinsing with salt water. Not sure if that will actually get rid of them, but it will kill bacteria, which is what makes any kind of mouth sore so, well, SORE!
