Lump on the lower inside of my cheek. Dentist incorrectly told me it was to do with my parotid gland. Does it look like oral cancer?

Hi there, I went to the dentist today, my dentist couldn’t find what I was referring to in my mouth (he looked for a few seconds) and then incorrectly told me it was to do with my parotid gland even thought it’s in a completely different location.

The lump is painless, and has changed over the past week and a half. I already have a post on the forums in which you can see the change. It’s mostly gone from a red lump to colourless with a hint of yellow. I’m worried that it could be something more sinister, and am convinced the dentist didn’t take my issue seriously. Any help would be appreciated.
