Lump inside lower lip, differnt from others!

Hey guys, i have done some searches on lumps inside lower lips and read a few post about them on here. My case seems a little different

I've had this large lump on the inside of my lower lip for aout 1 month now. It doesnt hurt, ooze puss, or anything like that. It hasnt shrunk/grown in size (atleast not to my knowledge). I can move it around inside my lip. Just today, i was poking around at it with my tounge and noticed a piece of raised, loose, skin hanging off from the lump, so i pulled it with my teeth, and a bunch of skin came off relatively easy. It started bleeding a lot, but i finally got it to stop.

Any guess on what it could be? I havent been anble to go to the doctor because of $ and hurricane Frances.

Any insight would be GREATLY appreciated, thanks.

Hello darealdeal21

I truly have no idea what your lump in the lower lip could be. It is probably not a cancer but you should get it checked out - the sooner the better. Hope the hurricane hasn't affected you much.

Best wishes
