Stop taking eccies.
Well, you've got to be careful you don't end up suffocating yourself with whatever you try. So if you put something in your mouth to stop you getting at your lips, make sure it's too big to choke on. Maybe a clean, dry flannel would work? Or you could try putting something really nasty tasting on the outside edges of your lips, to dissuade you. I'm not sure what, though - the sort of things you might usually use (wasabi or chilli powder) would only hurt like hell on your poor, broken skin. Maybe something non-toxic but also not designed as food, like aloe vera gel, would be a good bet? Or a moisturising cream? Those things would have the added benefit of helping to soothe your lips.
In the long run, though, you really need some sort of properly-made mouthguard. Go to your GP; they should be able to suggest something (or tell you to go to your dentist if it's something they can help with).

Are you really going to the doctors for this? wow. Man up
Tbh it'll probably go away, you just need to let this pass

wow. you’re immature. people develop issues that affect their physical and mental health and this is one of them, that is when you are SUPPOSED to go to the doctors. if that’s you’re attitude then rather than telling others to ‘man up’ please grow up and learn how life works. would you tell someone with a broken leg not to go because eventually is will heal? no because is might not be just a broken bone, might need to be casted. there may be underlying issues so visiting a doctor is always a good idea.
