Blocked Salivary Gland?

[therealcmac]

hi everyone, so i jut started vaping about a month ago, i had actually quit smoking cigarettes 6 years prior and bought the kit for my wife who still smokes, long story short i demoed the PV to many people and really enjoyed it, so i kept at it, and love it, tonight as i just finished dinner i felt a bump towards the back of my mouth just past the molars...it is new so i looked in the mirror and it is a perfectly round bump, looks to be filled with liquid, i know there is a salivary gland located there so i am assuming it is a **blocked salivary gland**, my question is has anyone else experienced this sort of thing from vaping? I am vaping quite often, especially today, i always drink lots of water but still get really dry mouth, and now i notice this bump....kind of freaky

I have not had that experience from vaping, but what I have had was a tumor, not related to vaping. So I'll be the voice of doom here and singly suggest you see a doctor.

I've never experienced anything like that or heard of anything like that. You probably need to go see the doctor about that.

I'm telling you right now that is not normal. You really need to seek medical assistance. If it is a blocked salivary gland it could get infected and case severe problems. It could also be something else. I'm in the medical field and I have seen some crazy s**t before. It's best to get it check out before it becomes a major problem.

Woohoo, I am not the only voice of doom. I found it suprising how little medical professionals thought of my salivary gland. For more than a year they told me it was a stone, don't worry,etc, till it turned out to be a tumor.

Well this has been so relieving lol i will get it checked out although i have changed my internet diagnosis to an ulcer, looks identical to what i have, anyways thanks for the advice guys and gals, kind of.

Self diagnosis can be a crazy and usually wrong thing to do. Keep your head up and just get it checked out. I could just be a sore or wart.

ya i am with you haha, my mother in law is convinced the whole family is dying everytime she starts her Mac, and i have definately been guilty of some google diagnosis in the past. I just REALLY like vaping and dont want to stop, i did burn my throat on hot coffee this morning so hoping that is the cause I;m not gonna freak out about it though, although you could have NOT said wart......now i have to google that....NOT.
