Clear bumps on inner lower lip
Doctor
Ive had these 3 clearish -white bumps on inside of lower lip, really small, cant see them unless I pull down my lip, but i can feel them if i touch them with my finger or my tongue. I haven't tried to pop them so don't know if they are filled with anyrthing, i noticed them in november, they are not really a problem to me as no one can see them, there is no pain, but its just a personal annoyance that when i remember them. i thought it might be something like my bad habit of biting my lower lip, but ive talked to some ppl and they say they get similar stuff but it goes away, so i was thinking it might be mucocule? should i be concerned? any response would be greatly appreciated! can i do anything to make them go away myself?

Hi,
With the way you described the bumps, it is likely that these are mucoceles. Mucoceles may appear to be tiny clear vesicles .Some of them may be more visible and are larger. Refrain from biting the lip as this may only aggravate the condition.Mucoceles may persist but they are relatively benign. Avoid popping or manipulating them to avoid any complications.
