Swollen and sore tongue
My tongue taste buds are swollen and tender to the touch. It been like this since I woke up yesterday.

It could have happened because of eating or drinking something hot. If so, it will take 2-3 days to recover.
If no such history then you may proceed to consider your problem to be viral in nature until proven otherwise because:
1. Abrupt onset
2. Your young age
3. No previous histories
It could be Viral stomatitis associated glossitis. No specific treatments are available. Just use any gels available near you for Oral ulcers and drink a lot of water.
Please click photographs and keep with yourself because this problem might happen again. It would greatly help your dentist if you recorded it current appearance.
Visit your dentist at the earliest.
