What is it??

[margykid]

Hi everyone.
I have this lump on my cheek. It is not visible but it feels like a ball of bones. It isAbout the size of a large pea.You can move it round and it tingles when you do. I don't know what it is?? Do you?

Are you talking of yourself now, or your tortoise?

I've never heard of a human getting a ball/lump on their cheek. It's probably a pimple or a boil or a cyst.

 

[margykid]

No, I'm talking about me.

Can you pop it? I would pop it.

No, I'm talking about me.

A cyst maybe. Depending on your age, it has to do with hormonal flux. You should have it checked by your GP.

Sounds like an abscess to me...slice'er open...flush it out. Just kidding...

Either google it... or see a doc

 

[margykid]

Ok thanks. But it seems hard to pop as it is very hard. I can try though but it is inside my cheek and not visible or protruding so I will have to stick a needle in my cheek first.

I wouldn't try to fool with it. Go see a doctor.

Haha I thought popping and picking at things was just a family quirk!

^not gonna lie if that was me I may just have done this... but the whole facial thing and scarring would cause some problems (even with a needle)

I think you should show it to one of your parents.
