Necrosis of the lip tissue

In burn patients and in patients who are heavy smokers we will often use hyperbaric oxygen. This helps the blood supply in turn helping the healing process. I am not sure what you did to your lip however I would suggest close follow ups with your treating physician. Best regards!
