Based on your description the only thing that I would recommend would be to apply Vaseline to the area.

I burned my bottom lip from putting a burrito in the microwave and then taking it out and biting it, and now I've a big white patch taht looks terrible on my bottom lip. How long do burns on the lip take to heal, and will this go away? Also, what's the best treatment for it?
