Bumps on my gums

2017-11-16 01:54:53
I keep getting small bumps on the gums of the inside of my bottom lip about the size of a whitehead. They are not painful but they are very annoying as they stick out. Usually they go within a few days but I don't know what keeps causing them.

Most probably these are harmless minor salivary gland cyst, that rupture very often, and form thereafter.
Next Steps
Visit a oral pathologist first for diagnosis.
