What Are The Bumps That Occur On The Lips That Turn White And Disappear?

a few days ago i noticed a bump on my lip it was there for 2 days and then disappeared. It was on the corner of my lip very small not painful at all was pink then turned white and then disappeared. Now I noticed another bump very similar to this one except it is on the inside of my lip. It is currently healing and is now white. What could it be? I thought it was herpes but it never blistered or crusted over. What could it be? Im scared that another will pop up after this one is gone

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, you have small white bump on lip , it can be due to Fordyces granules, that is sebaceous gland growth , dont worry you can apply
Ointment Mucopain twice daily if you have any pain , Do Warm saline gargle two - three times and
Take Capsule Vitamin B complex once daily for 5days if your problem continues then consult physician.
Hope this will help you.
Wish you good health.
