Specializes in Dermatology

LESION INSIDE LIP: SINCE I CANNOT SEE IT, IT WOULD A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE YOUR PCP TAKE A LOOK AT IT. FROM YOU DESCRIPTION IT COULD BE ANYTHING FROM BITING YOUR LIP TO CANKER SORES, COLD SORES, FOODS, OTHER CAUSES. IT DOES NOT SOUND SERIOUS. WHEN YOU NEXT GET ONE, HAVE YOUR PCP TAKE A LOOK AT IT. BEST LUCK.
