Might be viral infection Herpes which has the characteristics of producing small vesicles which ruptures and again fills with fluid . You must see your Dentist for proper treatment.

A MUCOCELE IS A NON CANCEROUS CYST LIKE OCCURING ON INSIDE OF LOWER LIP. IT CONTAINS MUCOUS AND WHEN BREAKS CLEAR FLUID COMES OUT. IT IS CAUSED BY TRAUMA OR BITING ON LIP OR STRESS. USE HOT COMPRESS OR SOAKS,IT IS NOT CONTAGIOUS.

Probably a mucocele/ranula. Caused by damage to minor salivary gland duct, resulting in saliva in gland backing up/causing swelling/wall of gland ruptures/heals over/cycle repeats. Please see your Dentist for rather simple treatment. And besides, sounds like you are overdue. Remember, Dentistry isn't expensive, neglect is.
