I have a sensitive ridge inside my cheek on the right side above my teeth. i've noticed it for at least a year. why isn't it healing?

Oral Lesions: Lesions that have not healed in a short period of time (2 to 3 weeks) should be examined by your dentist. Without a medical examination, a full health history, and a visualization of your problem, it is impossible to diagnose your lesion.
