Hi it seems like you have some kind of allergy, wherevin there cis sudden swelling of tongue.
If your condition was long standing then you could have thought other diseases,
Since you have a sudden history from yesterday, I suspect allergy.
Just take anti allergic medicine for z 3 days and see.
If symptom persist consult doctor.
