I have braces on and everytime i go for an adjustment i seem to get ulcers shortly after. I have a hard white lump on the inner of my lower lip at a spot which rubs against a bracket whenever i open my mouth to eat. It was sort of white/purple and painful at first but now is white, hard and painless. It's been there for a good month. What is it and what can i do about it? Here are a couple pics.
