What Causes Small Red Bump On The Roof Of The Mouth?

Hi. I had a tiny bump on hard palate for one month. I got it checked by oral surgeon, who removed it by surgery and sent for biopsy. Histopathological report was as hyperplastic squamous and no evidence of malignancy. However, the spot has not healed yet even after more than one month of removing and there is reddish swelling.

Hi..
Thanks for the query..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern..

As per your complain a small bump on the palate that is present since one month and in case if there us no signs of malignancy then you need not to get worried about it..

If the lump is still present then it can be due to infection and inflammation in that area while can be due to mucosal hyperplasia..

I would suggest you to consult your Oral Surgeon and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigation like a biopsy again can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..

In case if needed a surgical excision can again be done for complete removal of the same..

Hope your query is resolved..

Regards.
