I would say no and no. It’s probably some irritation from something that you ate, or even from brushing your teeth.

Blood blister.

Most oral blood blisters develop following trauma to the mouth, such as biting your cheek, burning your mouth with hot food, or puncturing soft tissue with sharp food, like a chip. In the case of trauma, a blood blister usually develops quickly after the damage takes place. It may or may not hurt. Generally it’s gone within 24 hours as the blood is reabsorbed into tissue.

Sometimes this is due to a new medication start.

I don’t think you have mouth cancer.

Hi dbeck, I agree with the responses you've gotten. You are not going to die.

Step back a moment and breathe. Exhale slowly, calm yourself down. After you

do, get some cold milk and swish it around your cheek. Milk can help reduce any

pain or irritation along with the coldness being soothing. As the others have said,

by tomorrow it will slowly be looking better. You are okay. Just something that

happens occasionally in life. Breathe xx
