Raised portion near throat in the mouth
He had a mark on his chik towards the inner teeth for the last 5 months which we showed to the doctor also and he said it was normal. When I showed it to the dentist, he said that it is happening due to tooth decay, so he got the upper molar removed, but now it has become thick and has grown out, what should I do now, what are the symptoms? Should we get diapsy done or is this normal due to friction..please give me good suggestions .I am also attaching the photo of the throat.

If its increasing in size or not , any other relevant history also needs to be noted. If you feel its been there since a long time better to do a small wedge biopsy and be confirmed …

Might be that’s because of sharp tooth
Kindly visit an ENT surgeon, as photo may not be enough
As he is 54, needs proper inspection and palpation before biopsy
