The baby has a cyst inside the lower lip, and surgery on the lip may cause deformation.

Patient's question:

My child has a cyst inside the lower lip. Will pressing the lip cause deformation? Treatment history and effectiveness: None. What kind of assistance is needed: A 1-year-old baby has a cyst inside the lower lip. Will pressing the lip cause deformation?

Doctor's answer:

The baby has a cyst inside the lower lip. Will the lip deform after surgery? You can try topical medication, but it may not completely disappear. Observe carefully. If it doesn't recur, it won't be a big problem after some time. Some children keep biting repeatedly, which can lead to ulcers, some fibrosis, or even make the cyst larger. Surgery will affect the shape of the lip. The complete solution is surgery, but it requires general anesthesia. You can try topical medication, but it may not completely disappear.
