Hi, I always sometimes get bumps in my mouth due to chewing the inside of my cheek and not even realising, I also grind my teeth really badly at night and this causes some irritation - could any of these be causes? I'm sure your GP would know if it was anything to be concerned about, it is their job after all...try a little bonjela to ease it and see if it clears, or maybe a visit to the dentist would put your mind at rest, hth x

Hi Malv, had a look at the previous posts...I think you need to chill, I agree with the previous posters re this, i'm positive your Doc or Dentist would know what they were looking for and most definitley would have done further investigation if they were in the least bit worried. If it was something very serious you would have had more symptoms by now. The body is full of lumps and bumps that are nothing to worry about, try to relax and focus on something positive - looks like you have a little un and i know from personal experience that this can really exasperate the old health anxiety as you realise just how much you have to lose - so what i try and do is instead of worrying about what if's when i feel really bad is to go and do something fun with my wee guy and appreciate what a great life i have and how lucky i am to have my little toots and give him lots of great memories for the future.

Chill you are fine, deep breath in deep breath out...xxx
