I have a small hard lump inside my cheek near where my jaws meet and I keep accidentally biting it. It's really bothering me is there any way to get rid of an oral fibroma without surgery? Can you suggest any medicines that might help?

It's important to consult a dentist or oral surgeon for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan for a lump in your cheek. While oral fibromas are generally benign, surgical removal is often the most effective way to address them, especially if they are causing irritation or discomfort

I've noticed that I have this soft lump inside my cheek, but it doesn't hurt. I'm a bit concerned and wondering if it's something I should be worried about. Could it be serious or just something harmless?

Could be a benign condition such as a mucocele or a fibroma. These are usually harmless but it is recommended to have it evaluated by a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis. You can use over-the-counter pain relief medications like acetaminophen for any discomfort.

I've been dealing with this ulcer on my tongue and the side of my tongue for a really long time now, and its becoming a constant issue. It's kind of worrying me because it never seems to go away. What could be causing this, and should I be doing something different to get rid of it?

You need to get this checked..there might be a tooth with a sharp margin constantly coming on contact with the side of you tongue causing the ulcers..please do meet a dentist and an ENT specialist asap.
