I've gotten my first mucocele cyst on my lower lip. It's been there a month so far, and hasn't changed. Will doctor go straight for the surgery to get rid of it or will he go for the less extreme measures first since it's first time I've gotten on.

 

Went to the doctor. She didn't really seem to know what she's doing. Which is pretty bad if even I can tell that's she's not knowing what she's doing about. Told her about the cyst, that I had it for 4 weeks. It's very movable and no pain. Appeared suddenly, probably from lip bitting which I never really knew I did till I got this. The fact the lip cyst was shrinking a bit.

Anyway she took a quick look at that, and lymph nodes in the area, checked my mouth for anything else. Told me to put a warm compress on it and if it doesn't go away goto a plastic surgeon to take a look at it

 

nope
mouth, neck, lips.
It's gotten smaller, not as big but still there.
It's soft right now, though it used to be hard.
It's the normal color of my lips, with bit of blue in the middle. And takes on a whitish color when you press it in a little. It is very movable you touch it.

 

And it went back to being hard again... The cyst I mean.

 

Finally go some pics of it. The pics aren't the best, mostly since it's pretty much the normal color of my lips with a little bit of blue or purple in the middle. Also if you press up against to the cyst it's mostly white with some purple in the middle like on the 3rd pic.
