Hello,

Thanks for posting your query at DoctorSpring.com. I can understand your concern.

You seem to be having a mucocele which usually happens in individuals due to lip biting. It might happen also without any apparent cause.

The treatment would be excision or freezing the mucocele by a dermatologist.

Hope this helps, Please feel free to get back with any follow-up queries.

Take care
