I have a small pimple like thing by my mouth. it is pretty much clear in color with maybe a little red. what could this be? is it just a pimple?

Mucocele: A mucocele is just a fancy term for a blocked salivary gland. If your bump persists more than 2 weeks see a dentist to have it examined. Many times these resolve with no intervention.
