I have a large bump in the center of my upper lip (see pictures). I've had this probably for around 15 years now. I believe it is the result of constantly picking/chewing my lip when I was a kid. It's always bothered me, but I never really thought about it being something that could be fixed until recently. Is this something that can be fixed? How do I get started? What kind of doctor do I get in touch with? Any idea on the cost estimate? Thanks!
