I have a small skin colored bump (just a little reddish) on my bottom lip. It kind of just came out of nowhere it wasn't here when I woke up it just appeared later. It doesn't hurt or anything.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have skin colored bump on bottom lip . Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to may reasons like canker sores , cold sore , acne , fordyce Spots , contact dermatitis , sunburn and skin tags . I would suggest you to avoid any cosmetic product on your face , take bendryl twice a day , apply petroleum jelly or broad spectrum bli balm with SPF 15 on lip to prevent it from sun damage and keep away from dust . If condition doesn't get better then consult dermatologist . Doctor may examine physically . Doctor may prescribe antibacterial , anti viral along with corticosteroid ointment , anti allergic and anti inflammatory .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
