Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain a flesh coloured bump over the lower lip can be due to causes like traumatic injury leading to soft tissue overgrowth leading to formation of a fibroma.
Other causes can be bacterial infection or a sebaceous cyst or an epidermoid cyst or a deep hemangioma..
I would suggest you to consult a Dermatologist or an Oral Physician and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation can help in diagnosis and treatment can be planned accordingly..
In case if it is a fibroma or a cyst surgical excision under local anaesthesia can be done..
In case if it is a hemangioma that is an arterio-venous malformation sclerosing agents can help in shrinkage of lump..
In case if the lump does not regress surgical removal is the ultimate treatment..



Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
