If they are not causing any symptoms and two doctors have recommended that they are not any major diseased tissues, I think you can trust their opinion and relax. The normal taste buds at the back of the tongue are called as circumvallate papillae and are elevated above the surface Unlike the other taste buds. You can have a look at the tongue of your friends and family members to see and confirm for yourself, if our words are not sufficient. Maintain good tongue hygiene by using your toothbrush to clean your tongue after every time you brush your teeth and avoiding tongue cleaners weather plastic or metallic or wooden. Regards.
