What Causes Swollen Lip And Pain Near Corner Of The Mouth?

My 12 year old son has returned from summer camp with a swollen lower lip. He is experiencing pain close to the corner of his mouth and the lip appears to be a darker shade of red than usual. He is also mouth breathing more than usual. Can you please advise me if he needs to be seen or of an OTC course of action?
