Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The bruise over the labial mucosa can be a traumatic ulcer secondary to ;lip biting by the sharp teeth or it can be a aphthous ulcer secondary to stress.
Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. Mean while you can take topical anesthetic like lignocaine gel and topical analgesic like choline salicylate. Do saline gargling.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
