Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

This does not appear to be a blister; it resembles an extravasation cyst or a mucus-filled cyst, and it could potentially be a ranula. I recommend against any self-treatment, as this could pose oral health concerns. Please consult with a healthcare professional immediately.

I hope this information helps you.

Feel free to ask further queries.

Thank you.
