Cyst in mouth or ???02/26/2009 |
My brother has what the doctor called at first cyst on the lower lip. it was like a bump but now it is really growing. after that he went to his country and had a surgery at that place. Now a month after it is again rising and he has problem in eating and keeping his lips fully closed. he went to the same doctor and the doctor is telling that it is not cyst anymore , it is granulocytosis something that line. THE doctor has prescribed him medication and told him lets see what happens. if it does not work we would have to do surgery but still he said there is no gurantee that it would not rise again. i really do not know what it is??
