Have a small dark spot appear on my bottom lip for a few months. however, i've noticed that it has grown larger and darker. it's smooth. is it cancer?

See your doctor : Getting bigger is a concern. It may just be blood expressed into the tissue. Did you have trauma to your lip prior to the appearance? It could also be a pigmented lesion which may require a biopsy . Best to have an evaluation and possible biopsy.
