Brief Answer:
It may be a retention cyst -Ranula.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for choosing HCM.
Noted your concern.

This types of blisters inside lips most likely are mucous retention cyst called as ranula.
These are due to obstruction of duct of minor salivary gland and are painless.
Usually associated with minor trauma.
It may not be related to adavir inhaler.

In most of the cases these resolve spontaneously but in some cases where there is persistent increase in size surgical resection may require.

You can wait and watch for few more days if size increasing consult oral surgeon for physical examination and further treatment.

Hope this helps you.

Regards,
Dr. Abhay Mali.
