Bumps Behind Front Teeth And Swollen. Two Cut In Shape Of Veins. Should It Be Worried?

On the roof of my mouth, almost directly behind my front teeth i have these sort of bumps...veins maybe? They are located right on the ledge of the roof of my mouth right before the upward slope. Anyway, two of them are cut. Like in the exact shape of the veins. Should I be worried? Yesterday it was fairly swollen for a couple of hours.

Hi,
it seems that you might be having some infection in root of front tooth giving rise to soreness and lump.
It is possible that you might have tartered tooth giving rise to infection.
Consult dentist and get examined.
A course of antibiotic will give you relief.
Treat dental problem if it is found.
Ok and take care.
