Suggest Remedy For Lump In Lips

I had a hard lump on the inside of my lower lip. It s formed after I kept accidently biting that spot every time I sneezed. Finally I got fed up and poked it with a pin. A mucus like substance came out of it. It finished draining and now is a sore inside my mouth, the skin that was swollen seemed to die. Might you have a clue as to what it was?
