Question

I'm noticing a white, bulging ulcer-like thing in my mouth. It's positioned at the lower backside of my lips and has been there for two weeks. It's not causing any pain or showing redness around it. I'm a bit concerned about what this could be and wondering what steps I should take. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?
