A member asked:

I have small bumps on inside of my bottom lip. haven't kissed anyone in 2 months & they just appeared 2 weeks ago. there not canker sores. what's this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Don't know: Don't know without determination. Sometimes pathogens can lay dormant in your tissues and become active for no apparent reason. Any lesion still present after 2 weeks requires immediate examination. Call your Dentist. We can't diagnose this for you over the computer from a description that only says "bumps." Please call your Dentist.
