Worried about mouth cancer

Trigger warning worriwd about oral cancer

I grind my teeth in my sleep which i no about..

Over the years ive repeadidly biten the same area on my tougne for years...sonetimes the same place once ive biten my tougne..
I suffer with really bad health anxety and for some reason looked at my tounge...
It lokks differwnt to the other side...im worried abiut mc.

Ive attasched a pic had anykne had this from bitting in same place.

As a lump in his mouth sadly despite treatment it was too late.Sorry. Please get an urgent appointment at your dentist.

There is a textured bit tho i dont no if thats where ive biten it and its gone like that

Sorry to hear that

Anyboy else have this please

I hope you've got a mouth guard from your dentist. The tongue will look different if you've repeatedly caused trauma there. But the mouth heals pretty quickly. It is probably a bit of scar tissue.

Please try not to worry. Lots of people grind teeth or bite their lip/cheek. It doesn't mean you'll get cancer.

The worst thing for oral cancers is smoking, drinking too much and HPV.

I have hpv

Orally? I don't think having it genitally effects the mouth. I'm not certain on that though.

Even then you mention you keep biting down on that part so that's probably the only reason why it looks different. But do see your GP and ask for a referral to maxillofacial or whatever they call it.

I think hpv is hpv it csn spread everywhere...

Im hoping as its the area i keep biting by accicdent over the years has just formed a little bump but..i dont no so anxious about dentist tkmorrow

Please try not to worry. It's good you're getting it looked at.

Too late for that lol

Ther3s like a squishy lump there small skin colour...im terified

Its like irs a small squishy lump has formed tho in that area

Its like a small squishie lump has formed where ive bitten it repeadidly tho

Here u go a pic

Plrase see pic above

There’s nothing there?

What time is your dental appointment @Beya4567 ? Hopefully early so that you won't be worrying all day ✌

The bubbly bits on the side of my tongue

Its at 12.20.. i no u all think im crazy but one of the bubbly bits feels thickened where ive biten it i dont no...but i csn feel it when i stick my tongue out

There’s nothing there. Make a GP appointment

So how come one of the bubbly bits feels like thickend skin then ?????

I'd say the continual biting has caused scar tissue. As pp have said, the dentist knows the signs to look for.
Maybe you need to try and address your health anxieties.

Im hoping so i really am

Good luck, health anxiety is shut and even worse when you can actually see something physically wrong. Hope you get some good advice today and feel better
