Movable cyst like lump
I have experienced this movable cyst-like lump on the floor of the mouth from the last three months. It is painless but due to my over-consciousness I touch it regularly with my tongue as a result of which there seems to be an irritation-like feeling. It hasn't grown in size to the best of my knowledge.
I have visited an ENT doctor twice. He seems to be less concerned about it. He prescribed some vitamin meds and asked for CBC and a few other blood tests which are normal according to him.
What should it be ?
Should I change the doctor ?

Dear Practo user ,
Based on the attached picture, the anatomy appears normal, and there is no cause for concern. However, if you have any doubts or persistent concerns, I recommend consulting a maxillofacial surgeon for a professional evaluation.

Hi,
Visit a dentist for a check up. You have other dental issues that need to be addressed. The lump you are mentioning looks normal in the picture. Get a dental check up also done.
