Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a mass that feels like a bruise in my cheek. My doctor said that it is a muscle. I believe that if it were there would be a matching mass in the other cheek. it hurts to eat and sleep on my right side, which is the only position I can sleep in. I have TMJ but it is not in the same place as the temporal-mandibular joint.
HI Well come to HCM Mass is something very different as long as the pathology concern and this can not be said to mass unless it is being proved and for that one need to get done CT scan, and biopsy, without this this can not be said mass, at the most this could be, lymph node, keep this under observation for any changes, hope this information helps, take care.
