How Can A Fluid Filled Lump On The Cheek Be Treated?
sure, I have had a rectangular mass that is about 2.5 in x 1 in that first appeared in my cheek. If pushed on it would just crush like a sponge giving off a burning sensation then it would go back to shape. Now it has moved to under my jawline. Also a secretion seeps through the skin when pressure is applied. What is this?
