Cause for more visible taste bud than others.

Resolved question:
One of my taste buds is more visible than others. It has been like this for three months (at least that is when I first noticed it). No change since than. It doesn't hurt and it is not sensitive on hot or spicy or anything.

Hello,
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com
I understand your concern.
It is just a raised hypertrophied papillae. Please do not worry about this.
It can be present normally.
If there are symptoms like pain, or irritation, or if the area is sensitive we can investigate further.
Since there are no symptoms now, do not worry.
Regards.
