Hi, i’ve had a red patch on my hard palette for about a week ago now (from when i first noticed it), it was sore at first and no longer is. I took a pic of it on monday, and have taken one from today, does anyone know what it might be?? I’m anxious lol, i’m 16 , vaped and have smoked weed alot which i’ve now quit and the vapes im trying to quit, i know i shouldn’t do it but if thats related would make sense. My aunt who works in a. dentist said it was trauma and to wait 2 weeks, but i’m still worried. I think something triggers it as it can change .redness now n again, i believe smoking may trigger it. Any advice is appreciated! :). The first pic was taken on wednesday, the second is from today. My mind just jumps to think the worst lol.

If it was indeed trauma, the red mark should disappear within 2 weeks. If there is no change, go to the dentist to have it evaluated.
