Lump in face

hello, I have a lump inside my face and can only be felt when you press down into my cheek, theres no lumps inside my mouth or signs of cancer inside my mouth and the lump moves around freely and doesn't bother me unless I press it and play around with it 

When I try to google for more information I only get info about cancer that relates nothing to what I have, does anyone have any idea what it could be?

  • Welcome to the forum Dan although I'm sorry about the lump you've found and for the worry this is causing.

    Unfortunately no-one here will be able to tell you what this is but your GP can, so if you haven't had the chance to do so yet, do book an appointment with them as they'll be able to look at this in more detail and let you know whether this is any cause for concern. Hopefully this won't be the case but it's always good to get any unusual or persistent symptoms checked out, if only for peace of mind.

    I hope this helps and you get some answers soon Dan.

    All the best,
