Lips: Bruised lips may discolor, looking like a black and blue mark, or it can look like a fever blister. Call either your Dentist or Physician to examine your lesion and to prescribe the appropriate treatment.

Regardless,: the color and the look the prognosis is excellent. he bruising, swelling, bleeding or cuts like canker sores on the lips are common. The rich blood supply in the lip promotes rapid healing, often with little scarring.
