Many things can cause your symptoms and need evaluation.
Sometimes bluish discoloration indicates anemia, so best to get checked out by a local doctor who can order a blood test.

This is a very brief description and there is a lot more information needed to make a well-informed medical decision. However, one possibility of swelling of the lips and that can be serious in many instances, so I would advise seeing either your MD or Urgent care as soon as possible.
