Having Noticed A Small Red Bump On The Lip

2 days ago i noticed a small red bump on my lip, i thought that it was a zit and i popped it and some yellow stuff came out, its been 2 days and the bump is still there but nothing comes out. Its a small red bump on the outside bottom of my lip, it hurts if i touch it but otherwise is numb should i be worried?

thanks for your query, the red bump over the lower lip could be because of the mucocoele or it can be ecchymosis because of the trauma like lip biting.. consult your oral physician to rule out these two conditions..nothing to worry it wont harm you..if it increases in size get it surgically removed... i hope my answer will help you..take care..
