Small white bump on tongue?

Question

So, I noticed a little pain on my tongue and took a peek at it in the mirror today. This is what I saw.
There's a little white bump on there. It hurts when it's rubbed. For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to use a tongue scraper. It felt like a very painful pinch. Any ideas on what this is? Is it serious? Or just like an "Oh I get these all the time it's just that" situation? Thanks!

Answer

Looks like a swollen taste bud, it happens every now and then, should go down on its own.

Answer

I get those when i drink really acid drinks. Try not to mess with it because the pain will only get worse.

Answer

Looks like a mouth ulcer / canker sore. I get them all the time and mine are triggered by stress. Don't mess with it or poke it or it will get worse and really sore. Try swilling salt water which is an antiseptic. Pharmacist should be able to suggest a numbing gel too xxx
