Suggest Treatment For A Small Bump On The Lip
Hi doctor! I was wondering what exactly this is and how I can fix it. Around a couple of months ago, this really tiny bump like pimple appeared on my lip line. In the center of the bump it is a grayish-black color. It isn t painful and barely noticeable, but it still is bothering me. 10 points for best answer! Thank you!

Hi,
Tiny bump pimple like lesion on the vermillion border of the lip may be milia most probably. It is a benign cyst containing whitish keratinous material. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis. After thorough examination he might decide to eneucleate the lesion with simple sterilised needle or to do electrocautery under local anaesthesia.
I hope this would help you.
Thanks.
