I guess it was about 2-3 thimbles. I don't believe Iwas chewing or anythink like that,I was just lying there. The pain was on the right side of my tongue(right where the blood was coming from).Thanks for the replys.

Pup,

Defintely need to keep an eye on this. Do you have any lumps in your neck or swollen lymph glands? It may just be an abcess that built up in your tongue, and something you ate caused it to rupture. If this is the case, your tongue should start to get better and heal like a normal wound. I would buy some Listerine Anti-Bacterial and gargle with it for a while to try and kill whatever microbe caused the lesion. If it starts to get worse, defintely see a doctor.
