A member asked:

I tripped and fell and my lip is a little swollen but not badly . will it go down by tomorrow if i keep putting ice on it ? what else can i do

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Most likely...: If this has been a minor injury ice should help with the inflammation. You may also try ibuprofen and the like, if you are not allergic, to help with the pain and inflammation. I cannot assure it will be good by tomorrow but if it is not too big at least most of it should be a lot better.
