Hello..
According to what you are mentioning, it appears to be a mucocele (a small cyst of saliva). It typically occurs on the lower lip due to some trauma..
Please upload the clinical photo if possible for better diagnosis..
Next Steps
Visit your dentist for a consultation.. if it’s a mucocele, get it surgically removed from an Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon
