Lump On the Inside of My Lower Lip ??
Posted: 07-07-05 21:53pm

I have developed a lump on the inside of my lower lip . This happened after I bit my lower lip but after it healed, the bump came out and it got a little bigger (it is hard and rounded, the size of a pencil eraser). I'm afraid this is a tumor or something because I never had this before even when I accidentally bit my lips many times.
1. Does anyone know what this is ?
2. What type of doctor should I see to get this diagnosed ?

Thanks,
scott

1. Does anyone know what this is ?Hi scott, what has happend is that when you bit the inside of your mouth is that the tissus inside your mouth(the skin tissus)have not healed properly and have swelled.The same thing happend to my sisters boyfreind as he bit the inside of his mouth many time,give it time and it will heal and u will notice the lump will shrink

2. What type of doctor should I see to get this diagnosed ?


Thanks,
scott

Lump On Your Lip

That bubble or lump growing on your lower lip is a mucus cyst or mucocele. I presently have the same problem. I have learnt I severed a salivary gland when I bit my lip thus a cyst came about.

To get rid of it, one has to do surgery? Is it going to leave a tiny scar that can't be seen .

Ok- Great...I have a huge tradeshow to attend this weekend and Im freaking out. I bit the inside of my lip over a week ago and now I have a growing hard bump that is starting to show when Im speaking...ugh! I was going to go to the dermatologist tomorrow...I saw the other posting here but it was back in 2005 and want to know what happened. Sounds like the same exact deal! How do I get rid of this thing in 2 days????
