Is Blue Lump Inside Lower Lip Occurring Intermittently A Cause For Concern?
Question: Hi, I just noticed the last couple of weeks that I have a small blue lump inside my lower lips. It seems to come and go every other day. I'm not sure what it is. It does not hurt or causing any discomfort. Can you tell me what do need to do ?
Thank you
Thank you
Brief Answer:
Blue lump could be haemangioma.
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Blue lump inside the lower lip can be Haemangioma. When the blood from the lump flows into the vein , it may disappear.
Another commonest lesion there is a mucus retention cyst. But,it doesn't disappear.
Without clinical examination it is difficult to confirm the diagnosis. If possible upload images of lump.
It is not cancer.
If you feel any discomfort then you can get it removed surgically.
Hope I answered your query.
If you have any questions, I will clarify further.
Wish you good health.
Regards
