I wrote in the other day and I have a couple more questions. What causes them to become enlarged? What are some treatments that other people have tried to shrink them back to normal size? I have been taking Probiotics for about a week because someone said they would work. I would appriciate any info on the subject.

Hi! Jason,
If you read the reply to your previous posting the Doc has given you a link or 2 for your Circumvallate Papillae problem. I hope this helps as the Doc is a font of information.
So check it out and keep on posting as every result that appears in the Forum helps someone else, so keep on keeping on and "Stay Strong"
Love TREV


Let me tell you the secret that has led me to my goal: my strength lies solely in my tenacity.

Hello Jason

I don't think anyone knows much about the workings of Circumvallate_papillae and why they enlarge. This dicussion on enlarged circumvallate papillae has made me realise that that it is a problem that needs an answer. If anyone finds a way of getting enlarged circumavallate papillae to shrink, please let us all know.

Best wishes
Vinod
