Brief Answer:
Send an image to me and monitor only for now!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this blood blister. I have reviewed the information fully and this should not cause you to panic. This is pretty common and often so when food causes minor trauma in the mouth during chewing. Blood gradually builds up and becomes visible. You can also send an image to me for inspection to make sure there is nothing of further concern. For now, monitor only and stay calm. All would should regress spontaneously as the body system resorbs the blood clot under the mucosal membrane.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.

Next time, send an image to me!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Kindly send an image to me. The recurrent nature makes it more likely of trauma like i suggested earlier. An image will shed more light into this.

Best wishes!
