How Should A Lip Swelling With A Hard Lump Be Treated?
I woke up about a week ago with what I thought was the start of a pimple in my upper lip right in the center. The next day I woke up and it was all swollen and got real bad so I went to urgent care and they said it was just something called swollen lip. gave me a steroid to take and it went down by the next morning. I still have a hard lump where it all began a little larger than a pea and it s not really sore at all but really bothersome
