What is a large lump in my mouth that has been present for 10 years?

Namaste Vijay ji,

Thank you for sharing your concern.

When you mention “Big Tromma” in your mouth for the last 10 years, it’s possible that you’re referring to a tumour or a chronic growth. Any long-standing lump, swelling, or lesion in the mouth—especially for such a long duration—must be evaluated by a specialist without delay.

🔍 Here’s what we recommend:

• Consult an Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon or ENT specialist at the earliest. They can examine the area thoroughly.
• A biopsy or scan (like an MRI or CT) might be advised to understand the nature of the growth—whether it's benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous).
• Treatment will depend on the diagnosis:
  

  Benign tumours can often be surgically removed.
  If it’s a malignant tumour, a combination of surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy may be needed.

🛑 Important Tips:

• Do not ignore persistent mouth swellings, especially if they are growing, painful, ulcerated, or bleeding.
• Avoid tobacco and alcohol if you use them, as they can worsen oral conditions.
• Maintain good oral hygiene and a healthy diet to support healing and prevention.
• Feel free to connect with us if you wish to consult with the oncologist or specialists for your treatment.
