[|Human|] I have had problems with my teeth since Ive been in my 20s and im 30 now...For about 5-6 years now I have had teeth removed on my left side if my mouth and the dentist did stitch up my gums .. however I do have something growing on my gum area where the tooth was removed.. it hasnt bothered me before and now it started to bother me as I push on it. What do u think this is..? Ive gone to the dentist for other teeth problems and they all try to send me to a speacialist but I dont have insurance! What can I do and im scared that its some kind of tumor or cancerous! PLEASE HELP!
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing in. It is possible that the area growing after dental surgery is due to hypertrophy of gums. Having a cancer is less likely in your case. Symptoms of oral cancer includes the followingMouth sore that does not heal as expected. Lump feeling or thickened mucosa of your mouth. White or reddish patch on the inside of your mouth. Loose teeth. Poorly fitting dentures. Tongue pain. Jaw pain or restriction of movements. Difficult or painful chewing. Please get a clinical examination done by ENT specialist and confirm that you do not have a cancer. Please do not worry.
