What Causes Swelling And Pain In The Lip?
I woke up and the right lower side to the middle of my bottom lip is swollen it hurts to the touch and feels as if its about to split open. There is no marks of it being chapped or like I bit it. Its just red and all bushy. Should I be concerned about this? I am allergic to penicillin, mold, and citric acid but as far as I know I havent been around any of this.

Hello and Welcome to healthcare magic!
If you have'nt been around any of those allergens it might be possibility of an insect bite or just any food which might have an allergen, do you remember the food you had last night.
Try taking homoeopathic medicine Apis mellifica 30 every three hours six pills for a day.
Wash your lip with warm water and apply milk cream or fresh cold youghurt.
Wishing you good health.
