Bulging Upper Lip, Numbness, Bump On Squeezing
This morning I suddenly felt a numbness in my upper lip . Right in the middle of my upper lip, the lip is now bulging downwards. When I purse my lips or move my upper lip, I can feel a strange bump and numbness in there. There is no sore, inside or outside of the lip, but when I gently squeeze my upper lip, I can feel a swell/bump inside the lip that s around the size of a marble.

Hi,
Thanks for asking the query,
According to your description i suspect that swelling in the lips can be due to dental infection, i would suggest you to visit the Dentist and get the checkup done take an x-ray of the region to confirm the cause and plan appropriate treatment plan.
Maintain a good oral and general hygiene.
Take care!
