White Bumps Inside Mouth, Swollen Cheek. STD?
Hi I have little white bumps growing inside of my mouth on my inner cheek, 1 on the left and 3 on the right. What are they? Why are they here? How did I get them? When will it go? Is it a sign of an S.T.D? Am I sick? Can I kiss people? I noticed them because my cheeks felt swollen. Also there's white stuff around the inside of my lip every so now and again.

hello user,
As per your history, I think there is Candida infection in your mouth, which present as white patches in the mouth and if those patches are removed, then there is small amount of bleeding from the lesion.
You are hereby advised to to reach nearby STD clinic to get yourself examined by a Physician, who will then advise you some anti fungal drugs and some blood tests, if at all it is candida infection.
hope my advise helpd you
