What Is Causing A Lump Inside My Lip?
Hi, i have lump on the inside of my bottom lip. Its been there for over a month. It hasn't really grown but i have been given ulcer cream, i have to use this cream for another week and then i may have to go see a mouth specalist. I am only 21 and do not smoke at all. The lump hasn't bled. Do i have any reason to worry? i have spoken to my cosuin who is a doctor and she says mouth cancer is very rare for a 21 year old but i am still scared.

Hello Dear,
First, pl. specify, is it a Lump or Ulcer ?
Lump means a swelling, Ulcer means a raw area. .
If it is a lump in lower lip, what is its look ? Is it watery ? If yes, it must be Ranula [ a swelling looking like frog ]. It must be removed by surgery.
If it is Ulcer, get the treatment of cause of ulcer, along with local application.
