Brief Answer:
Suggested histologic examination for ranula
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for reply.
As I suggested you, it appears to be Ranula based on its location and duration.
There is nothing to worry.It happens due to obstruction of one or more salivary gland ducts.
The diagnosis can be confirmed by taking upon fluid from the lesion by needle aspiration technique and then histological (tissue) examination.
Please visit your oral and maxillofacial surgeon for further help.
Upon evaluation,if it happens to be the same then simple excision might help.
Remember it happens to many people due to gland duct obstruction,the fluid(saliva) gets accumulated and therefore it should be allowed to flow.
But definitely, it requires clinical attention as it has tendency to grow and reoccur.
Hope I have given you complete answer.Please let me know for further doubts.
Thanks.
Take care.
