Palpable mass inside skin
I have a problem for buccal mucosa pigmentation since last month, so i far i have used kenacort, caziq, also shown to dentist they say its a physiological pigmentation. I have impacted wisdom tooth in right side, but one thing i wanna say is in left cheek also pigmentation coming up now.. another this is today, i noticed while palpate the area near the retromolar region(see the white circle in image) in right side i found that there a jelly like mass inside, is that anything serious and needs to be checked out by dentist or what? It doesn't hurt, just feels palpable and thats it. Is it because of the wisdom tooth? Can that be cancer? M really worried please help. In left inner cheek i will show u the picture of pigmentation..but this palpable mass not present in left side..
Please guide me m really scared. M having a lot of health issue lately :(. I have k. Pneumonia found in my sputum culture, eating medicines for that too. :(

Hello dear
Please be calm
See it seems to be a normal mass caused by either 3rd molar eruption or continuous irritation.
I suggest you to observe for 15-30 days for any observational change.for further details you can consult me
Thanks

Good evening sir,
I have gone through your description.
No need to worry.
It is not a cancer.
It is just pigmentation.
Observe for one month.
It will be ok.

Hi ,
That mass cud be due to continuous rubbing of the upper right third molar tooth with the cheek. No, it is very less likely to be a cancer. Dont worry. Plz get it examined by a maxillofacial surgeon. Plz dont worry
