Hard lump under lip from being split open, what can I do? (Photo)

April 9, 2020
Asked By:hanamacdonald in Drummond, AU

In August 2019 I had a seizure which resulted in me cracking my tooth and splitting my lip open, I didn't get stitches at the hospital as they said it was optional however I noticed a hard lump since then has never gone down. I asked my dentist about it last month and he said it would eventually go down. However I haven't seen any improvements and I am not sure. I am wondering what my options are and who I can see to fix this?
