The lumps are likely a part of the healing process. As long as the lumps are getting smaller, you may watch and wait. If there is pain, discharge or ulceration, it would be prudent to see your doctor. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.

Usually not. Most are due to compact edema, the medical term is called "induration". Typically most lip lumps after trauma resolve after several months.
