i recently got a lump in my lower lip(inside)of the lower lip.I am 28 years old.I had got the same thing when i was 17-18 years old some 10 years back and doctors had operated it.They said that i had the habit of biting that area wid teeth .I recently do not remember biting myself accidentally or intentionally but i have again got the same kind of lump and it isgrowing painful day by day.I am in US and i am scared to go to doctor since he will again ask me to get operated.Pls suggest me what to do?
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor forum, the history presented by you suggests that you have got a tendency to get this lump again and again, i would recommend that before getting it operated again just get the biopsy done so that the cause of this problem as well treatment is well decided. Visit an oral surgeon or an oral pathologist so that biopsy can be done, do not worry there is treatment for this problem.first knowing the cause is important.I wish you good health, take care.
