Hi, a few days ago I bit my bottom lip on the inside when I was eating by accident. Now it is really swollen and hurts when I talk. I've tried applying bonjela and it still stings and hurts like hell.
What should I do? Will putting salty water on it help?

The nurse above has good info! But also rinsing with warm water with salt in it will help. The thing that sucks about that is biting it again, so be careful when eating!

suck on frozen treats like sugar free popsicles to bring down the swelling, other than that, just keep your teeth clean and wait for it to heal, the good news is that the tissues in the mouth are among the fastest healing in the body.

Yes warm salt water should help, but also try gargling peroxide.
