i have a non painful red spot on the hard palate of the roof of my mouth. could this be caused by trauma? or something more serious

Question

My mouth is painful, when i chew i'll be biting the wall of my mouth and also red spot on the hard palate just behind front teeth. What could this be?

Answer 1

Yes it could. : So, obviously we would need to get it examined asap. Without a photograph, it is impossible to give you any information that is relevant to you. Good luck!

Answer 2

No: Try to massage the hamstring with a roller and stretch the muscle gently as much as possible.

Answer 3

Acne Therapy: Acne treatments work by reducing oil production, speeding up skin cell turnover, fighting bacterial infection, reducing the inflammation or doing all four. With most prescription acne treatments, you may not see results for four to eight weeks, and your skin may get worse before it gets better. There are topicals like ziana and epiduo and oral medication like solodyn (minocycline). See your dermatologist.

Answer 4

Could be cosmetic: No coomon for a young person. Please see a pediatrician or a dermatologist and have a great day!

Answer 5

Probably not: In japan they showed it could happen, but with 40% peroxide. It's illegal in the usa, here we only get up to 3-5% no proof here.

Answer 6

Doubtful: The most common problem with the chronic use of peroxide is developing a yeast or fungal infection. This is due to the fact that the normal bacterial flora in the mouth has been disrupted and you get an overgrowth.

Answer 7

No proof: No evidence to support. See oral surgeon or ENT doc if you have any of these symptoms: Persistent mouth sore, persistent mouth pain, a lump or thickening in the cheek, a white/red patch on the gums, tongue, tonsil, or lining of the mouth, a sore throat, hoarseness or feeling that something is caught in the throat that does not go away, difficulty swallowing/chewing.

Answer 8

Could be : She needs to be seen and have that evaluated. Black center means a necrotic center and may need to be debrided. Make an appointment.

Answer 9

Hard to say : Since haiti is a semitropical country, and other exotic diseases exist ther that may not exist in the usa, this is hard to say. It is possible that this could be a "necrotic bite" but this could be due to other things beside a spider. Eitherway, i would get her seen by her doctor as soon as possible.

Answer 10

Lesion: A black eschar is often seen with venomous spider bites - but there can be other causes as well. Please have this promptly evaluated. Depending on situation, wound may need debridement.
