A mucocele forms when a minor salivary gland duct is blocked or injured, usually due to lip or cheek biting 🦷👄.
This causes saliva to accumulate under the tissue, creating a soft, painless swelling 💧😌.
Mucoceles are common, especially in children and young adults, and are usually harmless, though some may require simple treatment ✨🦷
