Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The swelling over the lip could be because of the mucocoele. It is a cystic lesion occuring over the lips secondary to trauma (since you are giving history of lip biting).
Consult a oral physician and get it ruled out. If it is a mucocoele then you can get it surgically removed under local anesthesia.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
