I am going for the medication as you have mentioned. Just wanted to give some more details.
It is a lesion approximately 1 cm(half a pea) in diameter. It does not pain at all. It is like a nodule, the color is same as with the other areas. Could it be a mucocele?
I accidently that brushed that area against the window a week ago and like 2 days later I noticed the lump.
I have had ulcer before, but they used to pain a lot. In this case not a thing.
