Karey, there are many different things that can happen in the mouth, many that are NOT cancer either. You are right it is impossible for us to tell you much. I'll hope it is one of the not so serious things. Please let us know what happens.

Mark, 21 Year survivor, SCC right tonsil, 3 nodes positive, one with extra-capsular spread. I never asked what stage (would have scared me anyway) Right side tonsillectomy, radical neck dissection right side, maximum radiation to both sides, no chemo, no PEG, age 40 when diagnosed.
