Itchy Bottom Lip, Bumps, Dry, Cracked. Any Idea?

So I was scratching my bottom lip because it itched earlier in the day, then I began to feel a bump so I left it alone.I checked later in the day in the mirror and a tiny cluster of small bumps were right under my bottom lip on the right side( my right) So I woke up and it was burning (like itching) so I checked and the cluster had gotten bigger its now more or less the size of a dime maybe a little smaller. I haven t kissed anyone. My lips are usually rally dry and cracked? Do you have any idea what it could be? Thanks for taking the time to read this :)
