WHITE SPOT ON MY GUMS! CANCER!?

Hey I’m really scared right now because a few days ago I got like a small white spot on my lower gum on my teeth and it hurts so much, and it’s getting bigger and I’m so terrified!!! COULD IT BE CANCER OR A CYST (or whatever it’s called…)

Ever since I’ve got braces (last week) I’ve been using this mouthwash and apparently I’ve been taking too much ml in my mouth at once and it always hurts, it’s fresh mint and it has alchohol! But it’s from this famous mouthwash company, I think it’s called Litherene or something…

And I’m really scared…
Here’s a pic of the white spot:

(By the way it’s not the big white spot, that’s my tooth lol, I’m talking about that small white spot)

It hurts really much now, also recently I’ve been trying to make my gums healthy and red and I’ve been brushing them pretty roughly…

PLEASE HELP I need to sleep but now I can’t because I’m scared!
And I’m scared of waking up tomorrow and this becoming even bigger!
Once I saw a documentary about a girl who got like a HUGEEEE thing on her mouth it was called a cyst or something and it started as a TOOTH ACHE or something im so scared help me please I’m gonna cry I’m like sweating…

RELAX! It's called stomatitis /chancre sores or mouth ulcer. You can google it if you want. It's quite painful i know and it's difficult to eat or brush or talk. It's that painful. YET , IT WILL EVENTUALLY GO AWAY after a few days.BUT for easy solution, you can use Gentian violet solution. It's a small bottle with violet solution, it will numb the pain and works really fast. It's an over the counter solution so its safe. DO NOT DRINK THE SOLUTION. IN APPLYING IT, you can use a cotton bud and soak the tip of it with gentian violet and wipe it in the affected area or that white spot. leave it there.there are a lot of treatments in mouth ulcer available in your place i guess, but that's what i teach on patients over here and i personally use it. lol
