A member asked:

Is purple/yellow (looks like a huge bruise) and multi shades of red on roof of mouth normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See a doctor: This should be looked at by a doctor. Mucosal lesions can not be diagnosed online. They need to be looked at by a professional. It is most likely a bruise or hemangioma. but have it checked.
