Arthur - If it is in the back of your tongue it is completely normal. They're called circumvallate papillae.
ReplyDeleteHank Miller - Its most likely ur taste buds dude.... People tounges arent smooth there bumpie cause ur taste buds and ur different sections of taste on it.
ReplyDeleteKristen - Its your taste buds. The circumvallate papillae form a V shape on the back of your tounge
ReplyDeleteSandy - Those are circumvallate papillae and everyone has them, in that classic V-formation. Check out the picture below, does that look like what you have?
