Suggest Treatment For Swelling In The Upper Lip
Question: My upper lip has swollen to four times it's normal size. It started about eight hours ago. It looks like an allergic reaction to something. It's happened twice before about five months ago but never to this magnitude. The swelling subsided overnight in the prior episodes. Should I wait overnight to see if swelling will subside on it's own or should I seek immediate attention?
