Lie bumps are small, red or white bumps that appear on the tongue. They are also known as transient lingual papillitis. Lie bumps usually go away on their own after 2 or 3 days. However, there are some things you can do to help treat symptoms and resolve the condition quickly. Here are some tips:
1. Avoid acidic or spicy foods.
2. Rinse your mouth with salt water.
3. Brush your teeth after every meal.
4. Use mouthwash to reduce mouth bacteria.
5. Use an over-the-counter topical treatment like Zilactin which covers the bumps like a protective barrier.
Drinking 8 cups of cold water daily after some gaps can also help remove the lie bumps.
