I have a little lump in my mouth, what is it?

It's on the inside of my bottom lip, quite far down. I thought it was an ulcer but it's not raw or anything. It's smaller than a pea and hard. What is it? All melodramatic thoughts are running through my head right now

I've got those too. Just part of your mouth.

Is it? It wasn't there before, only came up about a week ago. Oh well that's good, can stop worrying now. Just need to stop myself from fiddling with it

This will sound totally gross, but can you pop it by pressing it onto your teeth? I get these, and they pop quite easily, so I assume that they're some kind of spot. Sorry if TMI.

Yep, I've got one too. You've probably not noticed it before!

Blocked saliva duct, I get them sometimes in my cheek. They can turn into ulcers so worth dabbing on some bonjela or TCP

Ewwww Have just tried but it just moves around a bit, can't get a purchase on it.

Wow, maybe I have had it for ages then. Will keep an eye on it and see if it ulcerates. Thankyou

Hi it's maybe a Mucolele.

Meant to say I have one too and my dentist is unconcerned.
