Brief Answer: local application of ice and glycerine Detailed Answer: Namaste Welcome to Healthcare-Magic Greetings of the day Dear Ms Rasulasath. I usually advise my patients application of ice over the swollen lip, 4 to 5 times a day is sufficient followed by Glycerine application. It definitely helps.
