What Is The Cause For Painful Lump On The Roof Of The Mouth?

I have a very painful lump on the roof of my mouth, to the back, on the right-hand side. The pain is radiating to most of the right half of my face, making it hard to sleep. Could this be a salivary gland stone (I had one before, years ago, in my jaw)

Could be. But which salivary gland was the stone in last time? You should get it checked to rule out any infection in the mucosa. Take care.
