Lip swelling: There are salivary glands on the inside of the lip and under the tongue that can swell up and sometimes get clogged up that can result in swelling also.

It would depend: On the cause of the lesion. Probably best to consult with your dentist or dermatologist, to determine the cause of the lesion and recommend appropriate treatment. Hope this helps and thanks for the question.
