Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
You have got a lump on the lip.
There are no medicines which can cure such lumps.
You should not pop such lumps as it increases the complications, makes the skin around more diseased and can cause a permanent blemish.
I would advise you the following:
First of all get this checked from a General or Cosmetic Surgeon.
Get a clinical diagnosis.
Get this operated for 2 reasons:
1> your get rid of the disease and
2> you get the histopathological diagnosis- makes you tension-free
