About 2-3 days ago the side of my mouth got a little cut. I thought it would be fine and heal in a couple of days. Now it's like swollen on the inside of my mouth of where its cut. It looks gross and its uncomfortable. What do I do?

You visit a doctor to see if it's infected. If it isn't then lucky you! If it is however, they might have to remove your whole lip =/

I use antibacterial mouthwash 3 times a day and scrub really well with a toothbrush where the cut is. Hurts like hell but its worked for me. I have braces so i get cuts often.

Like the left corner of my lip. Its weird but it kind of taste good on the inside of my mouth where its cut... like the weird candy you can't stop eating... :P

"Looks gross" if it does look gross and inflamed, it certainly is infected., go see a Physician.

trying home-solution might just get things worse. you only have one mouth so you better take care of that. you don't wanna regret it forever (and we don't wanna be blamed forever too) so yea, a little penny for the MD won't hurt. :)
