Hello and welcome to HCM,
White colored bumps on lips which release pus suggest an infectious pathology.
Are the associated with pain?
Apthous ulcers are associated with pain and irritation.
Pus collection can also occur in these ulcers.
These ulcers appear as red area initially and later they form yellow colored bumps surrounded by red area.
Vitamin B complex can be taken for this condition.
maintaining good oral hygiene is also required.
If the bumps do not disappear after this treatment you need to consult your doctor for clinical assessment.

Thanks and take care
