Lump in my mouth

In the right side of my cheek I have like a very dark red round lump which doesn't hurt at all and it's about the size of the Queens head on a 5p.

Any ideas? I don't think I've bit it because it would be sore, not sure how long it's been there either.

EDIT: Looks kinda like a blood blister, also have a very small one on the left side as well.

    If it looks like a blood blister then I'd just leave it.

    If it doesn't start going down within about a week then it might be worth having a word with a medical professional, but it doesn't sound very serious to me TBH :)

    :lol: That made me chuckle.

    You could have bitten it in your sleep or something. If it doesn't go away on its own, then write another thread. ;)

    That's a bit extreme. Sterilise it on the hob first.
