[|Human|] my daughter has a hard raised bump on outside lip that slowly is growing .....and it appears to be rising as well . she says it doesnt hurt but wont go away and never had one before........she is 27 and tries to be aware of her body/health. How does she begin to treat it?
[|AI|]  Dear Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query lump on upper lip which is hard and tender to touch is mainly because of anaphylaxis, angioedema which causes swelling of lip as well. Lump on lip is muscle or mucous cyst. Muscle are usually the result of trauma in the mouth, which injures the tiny salivary ducts inside the lip. Need not panic. Take antiallergic and ant inflammatory medication. Avoid hot, sharp and spicy foods. Visit oral physician once and get it examined if symptoms keeps on persisting.  Doctor may order biopsy of cyst to rule out causes like cancer or lipoma. Doctor may also surgically remove the salivary gland or do marsupilization of lump. Apply moisturizer on lips.  Chat Doctor.  Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
