I have a little white bump of two on the tip of my tongue. It's not painful but I can feel it if I run my teeth on the tip of my tongue.

Hi. These bumps could have resulted out of injury or irritation to that particular part of the tongue.also know as transient lingual papillitis.
Next Steps
it should self resolve in few days on its own. you can gargle with warm saline water twice a day. this will help. wait for a week and see if it resolves it else meet a dentist
