Swollen tongue
In between 2 months I got swollen tongue 3 times now. Sometimes it is right side and sometimes it is left side. Once my lip also swollen a bit, only right side. I consulted general physician and they said nothing to worry. I have gastric problem as well. It occurs after eating something regular. I get it mostly at night time. I was a smoker but now I quit. It goes off within 24hrs. I am scared as it never happened before. It is affecting my daily routine and I am even scared to eat. I have anxiety too. Please let me know what needs to be done. I have no marks or anything. That part feels like bit swollen.
