Had a canker sore on lower lip. surface is healed but now a pea-sized lump in same spot. under the skin. what is it?

Lump in lip: The two things you describe are probably unrelated. You might be feeling some normal or inflamed glandular tissue or it might be something else. This would need to be examined and evaluated by a dentist so call and make an appointment.

Canker sores: is the most common oral lesions. Most tongue ulcers, infections will clear up by themselves within a week or two. You should see your GP or dentist if the ulcer gets worse or lasts for longer than 2 weeks. Take care.
