👉 Antepirrhema is a condition in which the posterior part of the tongue, including the base and tip, are significantly larger than the anterior portion. This can be caused by various factors such as obesity, diabetes, or certain medical conditions like multiple sclerosis. Antepirrhema can affect speech and swallowing, making it difficult to communicate effectively with others. Treatment options for antepirrhema include medication, lifestyle changes, and surgery in severe cases.
