Hi, Im 22, 5 9 , 170 and have been very healthy all my life no problems really. I have a swollen lump right above my upper lip but still touching my lip. It doesnt hurt unless i push on it but i can feel it there and its irritating me. The swelling goes down a little if i put ice on it. Its not an open sore just a lump that wont go away. Ive had it for about 5 days now
Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query swollen lump above upper lips is mainly due to lip biting. Accidentally teeth of lower jaw strike upper lip and cause bump in that area due to excessive accumulation of collagen fibers in that area. It could be due to herpes simplex virus infection which can cause cold sore in that area. If you have excessive sun exposure then this blister could be because of that. Need not panic about it. Take ice cubes and press on this area for 10-12 mins off and on. Keep area rely Chat Doctor.  Keep
