Bruised lip

3 replies

One section of my bottom lip has gone a completely purple colour and looks completely bruised.
I haven't hit it, I've tried wiping it, it's just completely miscoloured.
I have a works do tonight and can't go looking like I've been punched!

Does anyone know any reason for this if it isn't a bruise? If doesn't hurt, feels a slight bit fuzzy but no pain and can easily touch it.

Update - it's actually gone pretty much back to normal after posting this!Hmm
Does anyone know any reason it did that? Should I be concerned?

Burst blood vessel in your lip perhaps?

Not a HCP so just a guess on my part.

I would call 111 in this instance if you haven't done anything to bump it etc. They can advise if it's a wait and see thing. Maybe a dark lipstick if you do go?
