No need to worry about it! It could be because of physical trauma or overstretching of your lower lip.. Or you are suggesting that you have common cold. Sometimes oral sores ( mouth ulcers) may cause severe pain and coincidentally you might have the ulcer in frenum region...

Drink plenty of water and eat fruits. Take rest or avoid stress... it should heal on its own within 2-3 days... Do consult dentist if it takes more time than that.....

hi
it most probably is apthous ulcer ( oral ulcer ) or traumatic injury. in either case , dont worry. apply MUCOPAIN or DOLOGEL ointment in that area 4-5 times a day and dont eat or drink anything after that for atleast an hour. also drink lot of cold water. it will heal within a week. if it persist longer than that, go for a checkup.

wishing you speedy recovery
With best regards
