What Do You Suggest For A Swollen Lip After Being Injected With Hydrogen Peroxide For The Dirt Into A Cut On The Lip?

i got kicked in the face and some dirt got into a cut on my lip, it turned into a small bubble and for a couple months i did not notice it until i bit on it, so i decide to pop it, i put a needle in it and i didn't feel any pain for like half an inch and then i injected hydrogen peroxide into it to cleans the infection and now my whole lower lip is swollen

Hello Mr tough
i admire your strength and courage but sometimes it is better to leave somethings for professionals to do
its correct that hydrogen peroxide would help clean the dirt but it needs space to move the dirt out u cannot just inject it somewhere without making provision for its out flow
now the swelling is there because there was no outlet the drug went inside the fascial planes
the best thing would be now to
show it to a dental or maxillary fascial surgeon would do the rest
kindly meet at earliest
need clarification contact anytime
