Hard, white bump on the inside of my lip?!?!
Question: Hard, white bump on the inside of my lip!?!!?
So I was on the computer not really doing anything and I felt a sort of small bump, but I thought it was just a canker sore forming (I get a lot of canker sores) so I ignored it!. A little later that day I went to go eat and as I ate I noticed that it had gotten noticeably larger!. It feels like a rock-hard, round marble or BB pellet or something!. It's on the inside of my bottom lip!. It's sort of clear/white and it doesn't really hurt but it's really obnoxious!. What the heck is this thing and should I do anything or just ignore it!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

it might be a mucous cyst!. it's just a benign bump with mucous inside of it!.
i got one once by unintentionally, and continuously biting the same spot on the inside of my bottom lip!.
**here's the gross part**
it eventually grew really really big, and turned blue when i tried to burst it!. once it burst, all that came out was mucous and a little bit of blood!. then everything was fine!.
they're normal!. if you're worried, then you can go to your dentist and have it surgically removed!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I had something similar and it turned out to be an infection from using old lipstick that had been laying around!. I guess I'd wait a couple of days and see if it changes then call a dermWww@Answer-Health@Com
