A member asked:

Are bumps and red dots in my mouth a sign of cancer or something else?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need for examination: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining the lesions. If the lesions have persisted for more than a couple of weeks, it would be prudent to see your doctor.
