Have A Tiny Swelling In Lips. When Pressed It Dissolved With Pain. See Dead Cells In Mouth. Recommendations?

I just woke up now and noticed a tiny ball-like swell on my upper lips, i have been experiencing this for some time but its been over 3 months since i last saw one. I pressed it and it dissolved with little pain. Also after morning brushing, i notice this white stuff like dead cells in my mouth, this has been going on for a while. Please can anybody explain what is going on? Thanks
