Non healing peeling skin in inner lip
Hello, I have this white patchy area on my lower lip for quite sometime now, a month. Its not painful. But when I feel with my tongue this area seem to have a different texture and slightly raised. The whitish skin sometimes peels without pain. I would like to know what it is? Is there a chance this is mouth cancer?

Hi,
From the picture shares, it looks an ulcer that is forming. Visit a dentist and smoothen your front teeth if there are any sharp margins. There is nothing to worry.
