Large intestine is connected to small intestine through ileocecal valve and is about 5 feet long. It ends at the anus, encircles small intestine on 3 sides and has subdivisions called the cecum, vermiform, appendix, colon, rectum, anal canal.
There is no difference between the colon and large intestine. Colon is just another word for large intestine.
Actually: The colon is the largest part of the large intestine, there is a descending, transverse, and ascending colon, right and left colic flexure, as well as the sigmoid colon, these are all parts of the colon.

To give a good answer, I would really need to see your mouth, or at least a picture. First thing that comes to mind is an irritation fibroma, which is basically a fancy word for a mouth callous. If a certain spot gets rubbed or abraded or irritated too many times, your body will basically form a callous over the area. Does it wipe off, or is it fixed? Is it a nodule with an obvious beginning and ending to it's borders, or is it sort of a white "zone" blending in with the neighboring tissues? Any white lesion has a potential of being oral cancer. The only way to know for sure is with a biopsy. If you use tobacco, cigarettes, cigars etc then I would get it checked ASAP. Even if yo aren't a tobacco user it could still be cancer. Another simple thing that it could be is a sore/swollen taste bud. We often think of taste buds as being on our tongue, and that is where most of them are, but they are scattered throughout the entire oral cavity including the roof of your mouth, gums, and even throat!. Another simple thing it could be is a tiny salivary gland that is blocked or calcified. there are just too many possibilities.
