[|Human|] I have a hard bony lump on the inside of my mouth on lower jaw.  should I request a specialist appointment if my GP does not seem too concerned?I am 64 years young, approx 5 feet 4 inches, about 180 lbs and relatively healthy.  past hx ---thyroidectomy and hystorectomy
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The bony lump could be a mandibular Tori or exocytosis or Osceola, or it can be a periosteal reaction secondary to infection. Consult an oral physician and get yourself examined and take a radiograph to rule out any bony pathology or any infection. If it is Osceola or mandibular Tori or exocytosis nothing to worry it's a being condition. It might trouble you when you want to get a denture for the lower arch. If it is a periosteal reaction then you have to treat the infection.I hope my answer will help you. Take care.
