There is a small meat ball in the lip

A small lump growing in the lip may be caused by an oral mucosal cyst, but it is not ruled out that it is caused by a papilloma. You can take oral medications for treatment, or choose laser or other methods to improve it, or choose surgery.

1. Oral mucosal cyst: If you often eat foods that are too hot or too hard, it may damage the oral mucosal tissue, increase local secretions, or cause cystic lesions. Accidentally biting the oral mucosa may also cause local cyst formation. It can be treated by taking some anti-inflammatory and anti-edema drugs orally. For larger cysts, you can go to the hospital for surgical removal to improve the condition. This can completely remove the cyst and prevent it from further enlargement.

2. Papilloma: This is caused by severe dampness and heat in the body, and it may also be caused by viral infection. It will form a small ball of flesh on the tongue or mucosal tissue, and it may also induce pain symptoms during meals or when stimulated by food. It can be treated with laser. After the treatment, you should also apply some anti-inflammatory ointments or use anti-inflammatory sprays. After treatment, try to avoid eating spicy and irritating foods.
