Brief Answer:
This is confusing

Detailed Answer:
I fail to understand the situation.
THe report IS of a cervical biopsy.
The content also pertains to a cervical biopsy and contains mention of cervical tissue ????
There is no context of an oral blister anywhere !!

I apologize doctor, please find the report with file named : unnamed.

Answered by Dr. Aarti Abraham (45 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Normal report, nothing to worry.

Detailed Answer:
Yes, now it is clear.
THe relevant report was missing, hence the confusion.
THe report is normal, in the sense, that this was a chronic inflammatory lesion.
It is non cancerous and benign.
WHat is more, it has been removed in entirety, so the scope for recurrence has decreased.
At times, alongwith the removal of the cyst ( mucocele ) the adjacent minor salivary gland is also removed, so that chances of recurrence are totally zero.
Your dental surgeon would be able to elaborate if this too was done.
Right now there is no cause for concern.
Take care.

Thank you very much doctor for your review.

it was removed twice but it still reoccurring . could you advise what could be the problem I have attached pic of blister . it is on right side RMT region. dentist said its mucocele.

we visited several dentist for your understanding.

1st dentist removed the cyst and stitched the region. it came back immediately in 3 days.

2nd dentist said it is because of wisdom tooth and removed the wisdom tooth , it appears as usual in 3 days.

3rd dentist removed the cyst complete and send to biopsy but he did not stitched the area. and formation of blister took almost 25 days.

we visited the dentist again and he said that it has to removed completely from bottom for not reforming again.

All the time it caused at same spot, no issue anywhere else in mouth

after review the history,1. whats your opinion ? 2. Is this a case of dentist ? 3. do we need to consult any pathologist. 4. if it kept uncured for more than 4 month will there be any other complications?

Answered by Dr. Aarti Abraham (59 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Explained.

Detailed Answer:
Hello again.

Let me explain things in more detail.
1. My opinion is that it is a mucocele, and it is being incompletely treated.
2. I think you should consult an ENT surgeon. Where are you located - maybe I can suggest some names.
3. No, you need not consult a Pathologist.
4. If not treated, there are no other complications. Do not be scared of cancer or any such complication.

Please consult an ENT surgeon for complete removal of the mucocele plus associated gland which repeatedly causes the mucocele.

Take care.

Please get a vaginal swab and culture done, to confirm infection.

Just use lukewarm water.
Also, wash profusely with water after sex and make sure you urinate .
Get your husband also tested for any potential infections.
