you need to show this to a head/neck oncologist or oral surgeon. It may be benign. But you need to check it out to be sure.

Mom had something similar it was actually a stitch that hadn't dissolved. In another area she has a granulation that is similar.
You should call your ent to be sure. Don't take any chances.


Lost my mother, Minnie, to Oral Cancer October 29th, 2008. I am so thankful she had the OCF to help her through her five year struggle.
