A member asked:

Why do i get a water pimple in my mouth?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Mucocoele: When a minor salivary gland (of which there are many in your mouth) has it's duct blocked, a small swelling filled with clear liquid is common. If troubling it can be treated surgically but they often resolve on their own.
