A member asked:
I have a very painful lump inside my lower lip which i think must be an abscess. is there any way i can treat it at home?

The cause of your lesion, if tooth related, needs to be treated by a dentist. How long has the lesion been there? History of smoking? Any lesion that does not resolve on its own within two weeks needs to be investigated. I suggest you see a hospital based oral pathologist.
