Hi!
For how long do you have this lump? What's the color of it? Is it red or white?
Are you experiencing some difficulty chewing or swallowing? Do you feel numbness of the tongue or other areas of the mouth? Do you find difficult to move the jaw or tongue?

Sigh... I may just be paranoid but the lump is really not visible. I can fill it with my tounge. I have had it for quite some time. (Maybe almost a year?). It does not hurt it is just there. Does not bother me at all. Sorry if I seem a worry-wart, but I would like some one elses opinion. Thank you! Confused

I understand that. But if you truly believe it to be serious, you need to do something about it. No one on the internet can diagnose a problem you may have, sight unseen.

Good luck.

It is very important to see a doctor or a dentist because you have this lump for a long period and doesn't heal.
Every change in mouth cavity must be evaluated by a doctor or a dentist.
Best wishes!
