Heart beat : Generally don't feel the heart beat in the mouth.

Question 5

i have very tiny (rash like) bumps in my mouth.  they don't hurt, but i know it's not normal.  what is this?!

Rash: It could be an allergic reaction or any number of other things including just normal bumps you are now aware of so see your dentist or oral surgeon and have them take a look. Without seeing you it is hard to diagnose.

Question 6

is it normal for my son who is just over 6 months old to have drool little bumps in and around his mouth? sometimes the sides of his mouth are red

Accepted Answer

Drooling: It is common to get a drooling rash but if area is kept dry (well as dry as possible at that age) and does not get better or if it worsens or has any kind of yellow crust or discharge to it, I would advise having him seen by his pediatrician

Question 7

small bumps or lumps in mouth that swells with fluid then return to normal size as before in my mouth its about 4 of them .no pain they are moveable.what condition can cause this all i see is cancer.what could cause this?they are very hard

Accepted Answer

Cancer unlikely: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests.  What you described could be mucocele, a benign condition.  It would be prudent to see your doctor or a dentist. 
Wish you good health!

Question 8

i have large bumps on the back of my tongue, bad breathe, white patches on my tongue, and extra mucus. i have a feeling its oral herpes, if it is will i ever get my tongue back to normal and mouth back to normal. is there something i can take?

Accepted Answer

Probably not hsv: The symptoms of oral herpes are painful blisters, or ulcerations on your lips or the inside of your mouth.  Herpes does not cause any lesions on the tongue.  Make sure to brush your teeth regularly and consider seeing a doctor for the other symptoms as it could be a sign of another infection

Question 9

have had the flu for a week and feel almost back to normal. noticed my throat still is scratchy and it feels like something is stuck in throat. stuck my finger in throat and theres a bump in the back of my throat, feels like a mouth ulcer. causes?

Accepted Answer

Doctor can evaluate: Throat symptoms can be from a strep infection (antibiotics are needed), a cold or the flu (antibiotics usually not needed), or from another cause such as allergies, irritants, other viruses, etc... A person may see a doctor if throat symptoms are bothersome, recurrent, or don't go away quickly. One's doctor can examine. Of course, having the flu does not mean a person cannot catch something else.

Question 10

is normal to have sensitive top mouth lip, some little points, not bump , cluster or cold sore ?

Accepted Answer

Previous cold sore?: Sometimes a painful sensation can be an early warning sign for eruption of a cold sore.  I wouldn't be surprised if after a few days you develop an ulcer or other skin lesion.
