Question
hi. im 20 female. my left upper eyelid is severly swollen since past week (probably due to contact lens). a little purple above lash line. hot and cool compress, tea bags and blephamide has proven useless. no pain or flakes. which anti inflamatory tablet should i take?
Answer
Dear Ayesha,
The anti inflammatory may just help reduce swelling, but not infection, you need to see an eye doctor.
meanwhile take an anti allergy tablet and anti inflammatory like brufen provided you can tolerate the same without any reactions.
Hence best to visit the doctor.
