What Is A Yellow Fluid Filled Bump Around The Bottom Lip Indicative Of?

Hello,
I woke up and just found this medium sized fluid filled bump on the outside of my bottom lip that kind of just appeared out of no where.
It has this clear/flesh colored film with a yellow-whiteish filling and only hurts when I put pressure on it. I do not take part in ANY sexual activities so I know it's nots that but I am quite baffled and upset as to what it is and why it is on me. I want to get rid of it as soon as possible so if you could include some remedies and tips I will greatly appreciate that. Thank you

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems that small fluid filled bump on the outer lip can be due to causes like bacterial or Viral infection, bug bite, allergic reaction etc..
I would suggest you to consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and he can advise you to get investigations like fluid culture that is being discharged from the lump..
In case of bacterial infection you can be advised to apply an antibiotic ointment over it..
You can do cool compresses over it..
You can take anti-inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen..
In case of Viral infection antiviral Oral and topical medication like Acyclovir, Valacyclovir can be advised..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
