What Is The Treatment For A Lump On The Upper Lip?

Hi, I have a similar concern about what I am looking up (lump under upper lip and bruising surrounding the lip only on the right hand corner though. I have a couple tiny lumps on my right upper lip underneath the skin, and I am starting to get bruising there, I was wondering what can be causing this?

Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.

The lumps you described as are on the upper lip and causing bruising is possibly due a hemangioma. This is a collection of the blood vessels as due to its anatomical position in upper lip can appear differently than when it occurs at other site in the body.

I would advise you the following:
Consult a General Surgeon.
Get examined.
color dopler done to see the internal spread, which can be deceptively very large;
if so get CT angiography
Plan a Surgery
Get operated.

This will cure your problem and has two benefits.
1. You get rid of the disease
1. You get a Histo-pathological diagnosis .
I find this answer helpful
