So I have this cyst type deal under my tongue, from what I’ve gathered I guess it’s probably a “Ranula” it’s been around for about 11 days. It was pressurized for a while then got super loose feeling. Like it was deflated. Now, it’s pressurized again. It’s an up down cycle. It has grown a tiny bit since it first arrived, but generally has stayed around pea size the whole time.

I’ve had these before I think actually, but very small versions of them and they popped on their own and I never even looked into them before cause they were not a big deal at all, but this one is way bigger than them and hasn’t gone away.

I’m worried about it because I won’t have health insurance until next year, so I can’t afford to go to the doctor for it. I just want to make sure I’m alright here and making a bad decision by not going to the doctor until I get insurance again. Let me know if you have any advice or tips!! Or anything, lol. Thank you!
