Why is there a large pimple-like blob on my inside right lip?!


Question: Why is there a large pimple-like blob on my inside right lip?
It's been there actually for about 4 years and I seemed to have never cared about it until now when it seems to have gotten slightly bigger. It doesn't hurt at all if I bite it, it doesn't hurt at all when I do anything to it actually. My guess is that it's like when you bite your lip and a swellly round thingy appears but this is what I think beyond the case... the dentist was saying something but I didn't overhear on what she said. The most I heard was that they can perform I think quick surgery to remove it or something. What the balls is this thing?

Answers:

Look up Mucocele on google. Could this be what you have?



It could be an abscess. You may have a dead tooth that caused it. In that case you would have to have a root canal in order for it to go away.

I had the same thing a few years ago and needed a root canal.
