PLEASE HELP

On the roof of my mouth, kind of behind my front right teeth, i can feel a bump with my tounge. I have felt this for a couple of months...I cant see it due to its position, it does not hurt or anything, I just feel something when my tounge is over it...could this be oral hpv or an STD? PLEASE HELP

It could be an oral infection of some kind, caused by normal bacteria, or maybe you irritated it with food, toothpaste, mouthwash, etc.

It doesn't sound like an std, and any bump caused by an std wouldn't last this long.  Oral hpv is very rare, so I wouldn't even think that.

Why not get it checked by a doctor or dentist?
