Is it normal to have bumps in your mouth?

I get canker sores every so often, usually just one small one at a time every couple months. But lately, I've had a bump on the inside of my bottom lip. It FEELS like a zit feels, only it doesn't hurt. It's just a bump. I can "pop" it by pushing on the area with my finger and it goes away for awhile but then it comes back. It's been about two months since it showed up. It hasn't gotten any bigger and like I said, it doesn't hurt. So, is this something normal that will go away with time? Or should I get it checked out?

    SO here's a weird fact: you can have non-contagious canker sores your whole life, then if you kiss someone with herpes, you can actually get herpes into the sores... Then successive canker sores are likely filled with HSV-1. The sores transform in the way you just described. It's called herpetic stomatitis (and yes, it's in the mouth). And it blows. Except it doesn't blow, because if it did blow then someone else would have herpes. So don't.

    Its normal, i get them too. Dont pop them cause they can cause more to show up. Just wash your mouth out more with mouthwash.

    If it were herpes it would hurt like hell.

    Get it checked out.

    It's more likely HPV because herpes would most likely go away before 2 months. Cold sores go away after two weeks so it may be HPV. Plus, I've never heard of herpes on the inside of the mouth but I guess it's possible. Get checked.

    Ok Artards, herpes are on the outside of the lips....outside...canker sores are something on the inside of the mouth. Go see a doctor or something.
