Question : I have a clear little bubble like blister on my inner lower lip. I pop it and it comes right back and then a white film develops on my upper and lower in lip. I do chew on my inner lips.

Brief Answer:
Next time you pop it, try leaving your lip alone.

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX the answer is in your question.
Why do you chew on your lip? If it is due to dryness, use a lip balm several times a day. If it is just a habit, try to overcome it.
Next time you pop it, try leaving your lip alone.
But if it still recurs, it may be a cyst and you will require professional help to remove the cover completely, so that it does not recur. Regards
