I had a small ranula that was marsupialized six months ago. within two weeks it returned, much larger. it now fills the entire left floor of my mouth.?

Recurrent ranula: Ranulas recur least when they are excised as opposed to being marsupialised. See an otolaryngologist to discuss your options, given this recurrence.

I have had what I think is a mucocele on my lower lip for years now. It's also quite large. No one seems to know who I should see to have it removed. My oral surgeon would not. I would like to get rid of it, as I have difficulty speaking sometimes?
