Swollen Upper Lip. Applied Ointment, No Improvement. Remedy?

On my upper lip, right in the middle, is swollen. It looks like a small blister is forming and swelling around it. It started last night. I put some tea tree oil and neosporin ointment on it. This morning there was no change. I have put some blistex on it too but there is still no change. Is there something else I can put on it or take to relieve the swelling?

Hi,
It seems that due to crack or tooth bite there might be having some infection giving rise to blister formation.
Apply antiseptic cream or gention violet locally.
If require go for one short course of antibiotic medicine after consulting your doctor.
Take some vitamin B.complex, folic acid tablet for few days.
Ok andtake care.
