A sore on the tongue is often called an lingual ulcer. Mouth ulcers — also known as canker sores — are normally small, painful lesions that develop in your mouth or at the base of your gums. They can make eating, drinking, and talking uncomfortable.
Women (more than men), adolescents, and people with a family history of mouth ulcers are at higher risk for developing mouth ulcers.
Mouth ulcers aren’t contagious and usually go away within one to two weeks. However, if you get a canker sore that is large or extremely painful or if it lasts for a long time without healing, you should seek the advice of a doctor.

What could be the cause of the red bumps on the back of your tongue and throat Both your tongue and throat are sore?
Red bumps on the back of your tongue and throat, especially when both areas feel sore, can come from several common causes. Some possibilities include: 1. Viral infections Colds, the flu, or viruses like mono can irritate the throat and create swollen, red bumps on the tongue and tonsil area. These usually come with other symptoms like fatigue, fever, or congestion. 2. Strep throat or other bacterial infections A bacterial infection can make the throat very sore and cause swollen bumps or redness near the back of the tongue. Strep throat often includes pain when swallowing, swollen glands, and sometimes white patches. 3. Inflamed taste buds (transient lingual papillitis) Sometimes the taste buds at the back of the tongue become irritated due to spicy foods, allergies, or minor infections. These bumps can become tender and noticeable. 4. Post-nasal drip When mucus drips down the back of your throat, it can cause irritation. This may lead to redness, bumps, and soreness. 5. Allergies or irritants Allergic reactions, smoking, vaping, or exposure to strong chemicals can inflame the throat and tongue. 6. Canker sores or minor injuries Accidentally biting your tongue, eating sharp or hot foods, or having canker sores can create painful bumps. If the soreness is severe, persists for more than a few days, comes with trouble swallowing, fever, or difficulty breathing, it’s best to see a healthcare provider. They can check for infections and recommend the right treatment.
