This is freaking me out!

Today I was brushing my teeth and noticed a very small black spot on the inside of my cheek back by wisdom teeth. I know this could be very serious or just something minor does anybody have any advise?

Hi,

I think you're right that it's a blood blister. I have had them before where I've bitten my tongue or the inside of my cheek. Looks like a black speck, like you said. Sometimes I get them even though I don't remember biting anything. Keep an eye one it and watch for changes, but I bet that it's nothing to be worried about. Especially since it's so small.

take care,

Blood blister - motion carried :)

As ever, get your doctor to have a look at it if you're worried :)

Hi there,

I had one of these a few weeks ago. I had been out to eat and looked in the car mirror (for some unknown reason) and totally freaked myself out.

As soon as I got home I got a long needle and popped it and a tiny bit of blood came out and it went away. I can't tell you the anx tho while waiting to get home so I could pop it.

Take care
