Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The infection of the lip can be treated by taking a course of antibiotics like amoxycillin and metronidazole(if you are not allergic). You need to remove the ornament or any metal which you are wearing till the infection comes down. You can also do saline irrigation.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
