Hi, i have a scab on my bottom lip that is barely noticeable but bothers me. when i chew it off it comes back, and has been there for a week or so.

Leave it alone: It is not feasible to be sure without examining the lesion, but it is likely to be herpes ulcer. Leave it alone and let it heal. You may try an over the counter herpes remedy.
