Dear Lybrate user, surgery is complete treatment, metrogyl oral ointment can be used for some relief.

Surgery is fool proof for mucocele. Meanwhile do warm saline rinses to reduce the same.

There is no medicine for mucocele. It has to be excised surgically. Its a simple procedure done under local anesthesis and hardly takes 10 minutes. Im assuming its mucocele of the lip.

Mucocoel is a cyst which will not disappear by applying any gel. The surgery is the only permanent treatment. It is a minor surgery so nothing to b worried as such. Please consult your dentist for the same.

Hey there, if mucocele is recurrent then surgery is the only treatment. Go in for laser therapy if ypur pocket allows. Download the Lybrate mobile app and use my doctor code gm2c5d for future consultations.
