I have a small red dot, slightly raised, on the inside of my lower right cheek. completely painless, but i need to know what it could possibly be.

Angioma: A small red papule on the face could be a number of things. Angiomas are very common collections of blood vessels and may very well be the answer. However, I would get your physician to examine the area to rule out any cancers.
