How To Treat A Small Lump Inside The Lip ?
I got stitches on my upper lip about a month ago. my lip seems to be fully healed by now but there is a small lump on the inside of my lip, bot noticeable by site but i can feel it when i put pressure on it. I am curious is this temporary and will it eventually go down back to the soft lip or will this lump be permanent?

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The small lump inside the lip can be secondary to the trauma and the wound has got fibrosed, it takes months to return to its normal consistancy. Nothing to be panic, it is normal following trauma and suturing.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
