A member asked:

I hurt my lip, it's badly cut (inside) + swollen. i can taste blood even though it has been 24 hours. i take aspirin & prednisolone. any suggestions?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See your Dentist!: If the damage to your lip is superficial (very very shallow) it will heal by itself in 10 to 14 days, since the aspirin inhibits your ability to form a clot this might explain why you taste blood 24 hours after the injury. However, if the injury is deeper you would need to check with your Dentist or with and Oral Surgeon since the lesion my require debridement and suturing.
