How to differentiate between bruises and necrosis? (photo)

jihanejihane
Hello I got HA volbella injected yesterday 0,7 cc. My lip was very swollen in the afternoon. I didn t feel pain. There is also 2 big bruises. One in the upper right lip and the other in the lower left lip. I put some arnica and ice. I also took benadryl and reactine. The swelling is better. But the coloration of the 2 bruises is worrying me. I hope this is not necrosis. I will see my doctor tomorrow. But i m juste terrified of lip necrosis. Thank you for your help!
