A member asked:
I have a bump underneath on my gum. its sore when i put my tongue to is could it be an ulcer or absess?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Could be.... Have it looked at. At any rate it shouldn't be there longer than 7-10 days if it is an ulcer. Abscess will not go away without treatment.
