What Does Black Ball On Wall Of Mouth Indicate?

I went to dinner and when I got back to my dorm I felt a little ball on the inside wall of my mouth where my molars are, I looked inside my mouth and there was a little black ball on the wall of my mouth. I think it's blood, but can any one tell me for sure

Hello Dear
Thanks for writing in health care magic. I would be happy to help you.
If you are sure that this black lump was not there before having dinner then its is most likely that it is caused by eating hard food which created extra pressure on the blood vessel and ruptured it, and now its looking like a black lump.

*Do warm saline gargle 4-5 times a day so that it ruptures on its own.
*No need to worry it will heal soon. If not, then get an appointment with your dentist.

• Hope this will help you. If there is any more query or question regarding this in your mind, you are welcome to ask me any time.

Take Care

Regards
