As I can see from the picture, I need to have a physical examination, so please call the Skin Talk Clinic at the number listed on Google and make an appointment. After the examination, we need to perform some tests, so please make an appointment as soon as you can.
No need to worry.specific treatment is available.it depends on severity of the disease . Complete medical history is required..
Pls do online consultation with Dermatologist for detailed prescription & guidance.
A painless, hard bump on the lower lip present for over a month is most likely a mucocele (mucous cyst) or fibroma â both benign. These are common and usually caused by minor trauma to the lip (like biting). However, since it has persisted, it should be evaluated in person to rule out any salivary gland issue.
Next Steps
Visit a dentist or oral surgeon for examination. Minor excision may be recommended if confirmed as mucocele/fibroma. Do not squeeze or pop it. Consult me on Practo for further guidance.
