Hi,
Thanks for choosing HCM.
Frost bite on lips take a while to go. What should concern you is "tingling and numbness or unrelenting pain". If you have either of these symptoms, you should consult your GP. If you don't have any, do not do anything further, it is likely that you may get relief over the next couple of days.
Hope this helps.
