Hi, I posted yesterday that I was very scared becayse i had found two round lumps in my check and I had been a smokeless tobacco user for over ten years.

Well, I broke down and went to a dentist today. He examined my gums, teeth, and said that he couldn,t feel the lumps or they were so small that he could barely feel them. He said I had nothing to worry about. He said that it was probably something to do with some salivary glands.

Would you agree with this decision. THANKS

Brian

Brian, if they say not to worry DON'T WORRY!!!!!!!!! But you might want to stop the tobacco use....THIS IS A WAKE-UP CALL!!!!! Don't you think. I don't really know if it matters one way or the other, I am not a doctor, but it certainly couldn't hurt. It is a nasty habit anyway. Hell just think of the money you would be saving alone,,,,plus your life....Vicki Lynn
