Worried About Oral Cancer
There is a sore like thing on my lip. It doesnt hurt and looks like a pimple, and it can be popped and stuff like a pimple. I popped it about a month and a half ago and it went away, but now i have it back i dont know if its same spot but similar area, could this be oral cancer?
Oral cancer doesn't typically look like a pimple, nor does it go away if you can express the contents of a pimple-like bump. It doesn't come and go, it comes and stays. Something that comes back is worth getting checked up by your regular physician.
