[|Human|] My tongue has been swollen for about the last month. It s almost normal in the morning but as the day progresses it gets worse. It never get bad enough to effect my breathing or eating but it does effect my speech. I have tried OTC antihistamine and a course of Prednisone with no results. There have been a few says this when my gums have felt swollen, as well. I know it sounds like an allergic reaction but I haven t added or changed any products. Any ideas?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The swelling in the tongue can be because of allergic reaction resulting in angioneurotic edema, the other possible cause can be an arteriovenous malformation or hematoma within the tongue. Nothing to be panic, consult an oral physician and get it examined, and you need to get an ultrasound and MRI done to rule out the above said pathologies and once we diagnose it later it can be managed accordingly. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
