I have a very very small bump on my inner bottom lip. it is the size of a pin head, maybe even smaller. It doesnt hurt at all but i can feel it with my tongue. When I run my tongue over it it feels hard and has a metallic taste. What could it be? I am hoping its just a canker sore but I dont know
thanks for your query, the bump on the lip could be a irritational fibroma secondary to chronic irritation like lip biting or any sharp tooth..nothing to worry it will not harm you. keep an eye on the size of the lesion..if it increase then get it removed surgically..before that you consult your oral physician and find out and treat the cause.. i hope my answer will help you..take care..
