What Causes Bump On Bottom Lip?

I have a small flesh colored bump on my bottom lip. My top lip had also been swollen off and on for a spam of about 2 weeks. I am scared I have oral hpv. He says he had no symptoms. I have no bumps or anything else on my body. Please help! I have tried a hydrocortisone cream and it helps, but not much.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
The flesh colored bump on the bottom lip can be due to many conditions.
It can be wart, papiloma, hemangioma, sub-mucus cyst.
To get the correct diagnosis I would advise you the following:
Consult an ENT Surgeon for proper examination, investigations and if this is a Surgical problem request him to get the lump out surgically and send it for histo-pathology examination.

Do not pop, do not apply anything to it unless advised by your Doctor as this may change the character of the disease and then the diagnosis can become difficult.
I find this answer helpful
