Is burns around lips or mouth an aid in determining whether or not a victim has swallowed poison?
It can be an indicator of a caustic or corrosive chemical (acid, bleach. etc), or other kind of irritant having been swallowed, especially if there are burns inside the mouth as well.
In any event, burns to the face or mouth should be treated as an emergency and the person should get medical attention immediately. !! Do NOT induce vomiting as the chemical that was or may have been swallowed will burn again on the way back up!!
Note also that in cases where the patient manifests chemical burns, the rescuer must consider this to be a dangerous environment, until determined otherwise -- think HAZMAT.
