Question : Small cyst like dark lump lower lip and seems to fill when I bend over. Like gravity is filling it up. No pain eventually flattens out stayin same size smaller than early pea .there for months
Brief Answer:
does not sound serious
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for the question.
This does not sound like anything serious. It sounds like a cyst or enlarged blood vessel that gets engorged when you bend over.
I suggest that you have your doctor or dentist look at it the next time you see them. You just want to make sure that it is not a growth that needs to be removed.
From the way you describe it, it sounds most like a cyst. Those are usually benign, but can be removed if you choose to have that done for cosmetic reasons.
Regards,
Dr. Robinson
