<s>[INST] I have a lump on my lower right lip. This appeared after my dentist lanced my lip to suction a salivary cyst .My lower lip healed from the stitches but I have still have this lump. I have seen my internist , an ENT, and an oral surgeon about it. ENT said it is scar tissue, my dentist called it a mucuouscele, sent me to the oral surgeon who said it is scar tissue. I have had a terrible time with mucus drainage-could this drainage be caused by this lump? [/INST] Hi. Thanks for your query. Once a submucus cyst is just incised, it can recur to recur as the inner lining may not have been removed. So it is imperative that is there is a mucus Chat Doctor.  This can be removed along with the scar also and the stitches have to be kept by a non-reactive thread like proline so that the next scar is to the minimum. I would advise you to undergo another corrective surgery in such a way that the lip is also not deformed, and you remain disease free. This is necessarily a benign lesion so nothing to worry. </s>
