Picture of lesion: Visualization of lesion and medical history and physical exam required for diagnosis. Any possibility of inadvertently having bitten your cheek?

Possible duct: It could be an opening of a salivary gland duct that enters your mouth. Have your physician or an otolaryngologist examine it if the swelling persists.
