(Also had me apply a warm washcloth twice a day to the area)
#2# Then went to another vet who pressed a glass slide to the lip to look at under the microscope to see if any bad cells stuck to the slide. They said no abnormal cells were visible. All four vets stood in the room collaborating on a diagnosis and decided to give her a shot of 20mg DEPO MEDROL which did make the lip swelling go down noticeably. Then after a week or so it has now returned.
### I am really worried for her and bellaboo2009 your dogs lip looks almost identical to me - so please let me know!

Edited by admin - I added this pic for you.

Hello, I know it's been ages since you last posted it but unfortunately my dog has the same issue and don't know what is it, I'm looking for info on the web, in a week we'll go for a vet visit.
My vet saw a photo of this swollen lip and said to try with anti-inflammatory (meloxidyl) and antiedemigen (brospet) for a week, then evaluate the situation because only a biopsy could tell what is it. My 9 years old dog suffers from hepatic diseases so I'm so worried about anaesthetic... plus on the web there are so malignant options that I'm really scared about this swelling... can someone help me?
