Are White Lumps At The Base Of The Tongue Dangerous?

I noticed about 5 days ago, a feeling of something on the left side of my throat. I frequently have tonsil stones, but after a thorough check, found none. During this process I noticed that on the far left base of my tongue, two enlarged white lumps...I understand that different types of papillae inhabit this part of the tongue, but do not see them on the other side of the tongue. There is no pain or bleeding, I do not smoke or drink excessively either. There is no history of oral cancer in my family. The only symptom present is a feeling of something there that I cannot get rid of. It s very aggravating and I have done a salt water rinse, used an antiseptic wash, even went as far as using Chloraseptic to dull the feeling. I m wondering if this is something I should worry about getting checked, or something that will take care of itself in time. Thanks.
