What is this?
Few years back i had lichenoid reaction on my buccal mucosa after the covaxin shots.
It got resolved eventually.
Now i had felt a grainy type texture on my buccal mucosa for some time when i took photos today it is like this?
Is this leukoplakia or some random inflammation? I am scared.
I dont drink, no smoking, no tobacco or any bad habits.
It doesn't hurt or burn or anything, asymptomatic totally but when i lick that area it feels a little scaly/rough type. Thats how i came to know about this.
I am scared, why is this happening?
Help me.
Attached two pics. Thanks

White/yellow grainy structure/texture are Fordyces granules.
It's normal structure.
Don't worry.
If required/needed, visit a local oral medicine specialist for physical evaluation and treatment.
