Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The large blister over the lip could be a mucocele secondary to lip biting. Consult a oral physician and get it ruled out. If it is a mucocele you can get it surgically removed under local anesthesia.
The other possible cause of blister could be secondary to the use of tobacco that is in initial stages of oral submucous fibrosis. You have to stop the habits and take anti oxidants like lycopene capsules once daily for 30 days.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
