What Causes Skin Colored Bump On Bottom Lip?

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. In fact I wouldnt have even noticed it if I didnt look in the mirror. Really I just want to know what it could be. I'm scared honestly.

As per your complain a painless small skin coloured bump on lower lip can be due to a few common cause like bacterial infection, mild allergic reaction, inflammation etc..

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

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
