How To Cure Bruise On The Bottom Of The Lip?
Hi Dr
My daughter is 14 months old and she hurt her bottom lip by falling of the bed. The side corner of the bed is wooden that actually hit her lower teeth and gave her the bruise on the bottom lip. Now the side of the bottom lip is swollen as well. I am just concerned that there won't be any septic. Please advise.thanks!@

thanks for your query, the swelling of the lip could be because of the impact and if i would be the doctor who is treating you i would advise to take analgesic and apply ice cubes over the swelling and take a radiograph of the teeth where she got hit to rule out any fracture of the teeth. i hope my answer will help you.. take care.. consult your oral physician
