My 4 month old was having a crying fit when I noticed a hole under his tongue. Is this something to worry about and does anyone know what this is?

Hello and Welcome -

I know it's been a little while since you posted this, hope you have contacted his doctors office and found out what's going on.

Was the opening to his salivary duct or was it an injury?

Keep us posted,
Elizabeth
