Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
As CPR training includes mouth to mouth breathing training, it is quite likely that your lips got bruised in the process. This can be expected to heal on its own and there is nothing you need to worry about.
I hope I have addressed your concerns. I will be available for follow ups.
Regards
