Hello,

have a lump on the roof of my mouth, hard, visible, does not hurt. It is a 1/4 marble size and shape about midway from my teeth to my throat. The lump is on my left side, off the center of the roof of my mouth. I noticed this last night. Not knowing what it was, I brushed my teeth and used mouth wash hoping it would disappear or reduce by morning. It still feels the same size and still doesn't hurt. I am 5'11, 170, and work out two to three times per week. Have about the average diet of a 23 year old who barely makes bills but still have protein shakes. I drink rarely but socially and do not smoke. No other drugs for sure or medications. My medical history is as follows:
1-2-lucky
3-allergic to milk and eggs
4-11-lucky
12-allergic to all animals, pollen, dust (everything except medications and food).

13-21-really lucky
22-dillitation of esophagus, gastritis, inflammation of stomach. A gastroenterologist sedated me, then put a camera down my throat and did and found the previous. I was put on purple pill for a month.

22-superventricular tachycardia arrhythmia, ablation. A cardiologists believed I had the previous wrong but the entire test where coming up negative. Then she offered me a test where they pinch your pathways and I came up positive and then the doctors did an ablation.

23-hoping for the best! Not so lucky.


I am heading out for boot camp in a few days hopefully, in california, thankfully cause I have no conditions that are life threatening. I am wondering what this lump is and who I should consult about it. I do not have health insurance as of last month. What to do?


A little about me: my nickname came from working out and me wanting to be healthy my whole life, but for me i'm like why, I try so hard. For 23 I am young and a lot of my career choices (physical trainer, military, etc) or goals are heavily physical. If I could do everything over again I would be completely healthy :roll: I wanted the ablation for this reason mostly, as it was that or avoid heavy physical activity. Now I have to go to boot camp and just before I am supposed to leave, I get a lump on the roof of my mouth!?


Need help.
