Question 1

small red slightly raised spot size of a pin head appeared on lower lip 2 weeks ago. not painful, not changing. any ideas?

Accepted Answer

Lip lesion: This could be a hemangioma,a benign tiny blood vessel growth. A dermatologist could evaluate it and advise you.

Question 2

i have a small white bump on the inside f my lower lip, you can't really see it, but i can feel it, it's not clear or really bubbled up, just raised?

Accepted Answer

Does it change?: If you have recently bumped the lip, it is most likely a mucous retention phenomenon or mucocele. The lesion occurs when the duct of one of the 1000s of minor lip salivary glands is injured. The gland continues to pump saliva, but it gets &quot;backed up&quot; into a small- large bump. Best to have it evaluated to rule out fibroma, lipoma, cysts, other causes.

Question 3

i dont have any raised sore or anything but when i press against inside my lower lip feel like bubbles. i m having chew habit n biting lip habit.

Accepted Answer

Examination: Please ask your Dentist to evaluate.  Repetitive trauma can cause transient to permanent tissue damage.  If problem persists can result in serious complications.  See your Dentist.

Question 4

it usually shows up as swelling of a part of my lip in the mornings. different parts on different days. the swelling usually subsides within a couple of hours. the rash is a raised pink/red welt - usually on hips or lower abdomen. also in mornings

Accepted Answer

? Urticaria: Better get seen, meanwhile OTC antihistamines as cetirizine or loratadine would help, read the labels carefully and don't exceed recommended dosage and duration, good luck

Question 5

i had a boil in november on the lower back of my head, bad-smelling clear pus came out when i squeezed it, then it healed. now i have a reddish raised bump in that spot. what could this be/what should be done, if anything?

Accepted Answer

Skin care: 60 year old gentleman with history of a skin infection versus cyst. You should visit a dermatologist in the office to examine your skin. It is possible that this is a self-limited skin infection or infected follicle or it could be a sebaceous cyst which has lining that will elaborate keratinous grummus until that lining is scraped. Your dermatologist will be able to evaluate this for you.

Question 6

sore pimple on lower right abdomen. white head, very bright red around the edges. hurts to the touch. area around head is slightly raised. ?

Accepted Answer

Drainage: When it drains it will feel better and begin to heal. If it does not drain on its own, a DR will drain it.

Question 7

i have a raised line on my lip that goes all the way around my cheeks. what is it?

Accepted Answer

Get it checked: This kind of symptom could be a sign of a fungal infection, a granuloma annulare, dermatitis, or an autoimmune dermatitis of some type. Without an exam, it's hard to say which is more likely.

Question 8

what could this raised scar on the border of my lip be?

Accepted Answer

Lip scars: These are difficult to comment on without obtaining a history and seeing what you are talking about.  I suggest you see your local physician for advice if you are concerned about this.  Photos would help if you can provide one.

Question 9

small painless red patch on bottom lip that is slightly raised?

Accepted Answer

Probably sun: The most likely explanation is sun/UV light exposure to normal small salivary glands in the lips causing a small amount of inflammation. Because it is painless It is much less likely to be a cold sore due to the herpes virus.  I believe it should resolve on its own. Keep your lips moisturized with use of an OTC lip balm. If it persists or more develop, consider consultation with a Dermatologist.

Question 10

there is a part on my bottom lip that appears raised.  what is it?

Accepted Answer

Could be many: things from a wart, to sun damage, to virus, need to see dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment
