Dr Paul--
I noticed this swelling of the frenulum this morning, amost immediately after having slipped and fallen flat on my back, having slipped on ice on the raod. It is not painful and does not appear inflamed. The center of the frenulum swelling is approximately the size of a large pea. I'm unable to photograph it!

Brief Answer:
Hematoma mouth
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Since the swelling is sudden in onset and is painless and non inflamed, so it is more likely to be a hematoma which must have developed during the sudden trauma due to a fall.
In such cases, you just need to wait and watch.
It would most probably decrease with time.
Just take oral vitamin c tablets for its quick resolution.
But if in case, the lesion tends to increase in size or there is any associated pain or fever, then you should see a nearby dermatologist or an ent specialist. It would then be necessary to examine the lesion to rule out other less common possibilities.
Hope it helps
