mucoseal?
mucoseal?
I have a blister-like sore on the inside of my lower lip that has a white
spot almost the head of a pimple in the center of it. It can be drained and
clear, slimy fluid comes out of it and then it looks like a bite or
ulceration with a hole in the middle. I do occasionally bite it when it
gets big enough. It's almost painless. After it's drained either through
me draining it or because it gets bitten and drains that way, it will almost
heal and then fill up once again. I've heard of mucoseals in animals, but
can humans get them? Does this sound like a mucoseal? I've had it now for
about three weeks. -Chris

Re: mucoseal?
Probably. Get it checked out.

Check the spelling: it's mucocoele. Yes, this sounds like a mucocoele.
They're very common on the lower lip. They are generally caused by
trauma (ie: biting) of the minor salivary glands that line the inside of
the lower lip. If the duct is damaged, the secretions build up under
the tissue until the tissue ruptures. Usually they eventually resolve
on their own (at least the ones I've gotten have) though they
occasionally have to be removed, which is a pretty easy procedure that
is simple and only mildly annoying.
The larger so-called mucous retention cysts, esp. those in the floor of
the mouth called "ranula" are a bit more involved, but basically
treatment is along the same lines--surgical removal.

Thank you very much for this information and for the correct spelling. It's
fairly small and might have been caused by the pressure from a hard plastic
lower mouthguard that I wear that presses on that area. I occasionally
sleep on my stomach and that side of my face gets a lot of pressure - which
I imagine also presses on my lower lip and could have damaged one of the
salivary gland drainage tubes and caused the problem to begin with. I'll
get it checked out if it doesn't go away on its own very soon. -Chris
