Have Bumps On Gums. No Pain. Have Constant Headache.Are They Related?
I have two small, gum-colored bumps on the bottom inside of my gums. I just noticed them a half hour ago, I m sure they haven t been there for more than a couple hours at most. I just ate some macaroni and cheese, and drank some coffee before I noticed them. They don t cause me any pain,. The past 3 days I have had a constant headache that does not seem to go away and I have kept hydrated. I m not sure if these symptoms are related or not.

Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
If the bumps are not painful, it suggests that it cannot be an infection. In that case your headache may not be related to the bumps.
Do a visual acuity as visual disturbance is also a common cause of headache.
Take paracetamol for the pain initially and if the headache persists then it will have to be investigated.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
In future if you wish to contact me directly, you can use the below mentioned link:
