I have a small cyst on my soft pallet left and it is filled with fluid. I popped it because it is a nuisance because my tongue touches it when I swallow. When I popped it today, fluid came out and then it bled. I saw an ENT this morning and he said it was nothing to worry about. However, when he saw it this morning it wasn t there. He said he just saw reminants that he thought was from a surgery - which I ve never had.
Hello, The Symptom you mentioned in query is indicating towards a condition known as muscle as duct of gland get blocked and saliva get accumulated and form muscle. Usually, it goes away without any treatment. Do not touch lump with your tongue or pick it. You can apply honey on lump at night. However, if it persists or cause problem in normal functioning of oral cavity then you should consult dentist/oral surgeon for proper examination and to rule out other condition like Torus palatines. The doctor may remove the gland surgically or perform marsupialization which is helping a formation of new duct for Chat Doctor. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
