Pathologist and Microbiologist, Dr. S. Samanta's Response
Hi, thanks for sharing your health concerns with HCM! If I were your treating Doctor for this case of floor of mouth nodule, I would come up with three possibilities, these include: 1. benign cystic lesion like mucocele (mucus-filled sac!) 2. The second possibility is of a mucosal tag or fibroepithelial polyp 3. The last possibility is of some other cysts like branchial cyst or lymphatic cysts or lymphangioma!
Overall, there is nothing to worry about this and at least this could not be cancer in any case but stay away from any addiction... I suggest you to go for an FNAC the region for confirmation and to relieve your concerns!
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
Wishing you good health.
