What Does Red Bump On Lower Lip Indicate?

I have a red bump on my lower lip that has been there for a few years now. Is it cancer. I do bite my lips, drink hot tea I do remeber a sore there once. What could it possibly be and should it be checked out. It has not grown in the 2 years I have really noticed it.

Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

This could be due to constant irritation due to lip biting, as you have mentioned.
Is the lump painful?
What are other symptoms assocaited?
A thoropugh clinical examination of the lesion is required..
Dont worry this is surely not a cancer.

Take care!
