Hello This is a mucocele, which can be removed by succession. Sometimes it goes off by bursting, but if it doesn’t go in one week, please visit the dentist for the excision of the mucocele

This is a classic mucocele. Which is basically trapped mucous secretions from minor salivary glands which are present on the lips. Could have happened due to some trauma such as lip biting which could have been accidental. Usually treatment by complete excision of the lesion. Generally done under local anaesthesia.
Next Steps
Consult a oral and maxillofacial surgeon for further management
