Swelling in the lower lip

2017-08-15 12:16:21
It has been more than 4 weeks. I have a swelling on lower lip and I don't know what it is. It is painless but very embarrassing. Sometimes it swells up due to sudden collision with the teeth, and sometimes it becomes very small but visible. Can you please tell me what it is actually

Sounds like a mucocele or a swelling due to filling up of saliva from tiny glands. Harmless. It needs to be removed. Caused due to trauma like lip biting. Please see a dentist
