A kind of cyst appeared in the inner side of lower lip of my daughter (age-7). It has been seen since 15 days. Initially it was a small round, now it is swollen round, length is 0.4 cm. It is very soft, no pain at all. What can I do?

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Cyst on the inside of the lip, usually will resolve of it's own and will not require any treatment. If it persists for more than 2 weeks or becomes painful you need to consult a dental surgeon to examine it and treat it if necessary. Dental caries also needs to be excluded. Get her to wash her mouth regularly with a good mouth wash such as LISTERINE, which is available in all medical shops.
