How To Cure Swelling And Minor Cut On The Left Eye?
Thank you, Doctor. My name is Seun. I am 26years old. I'm about 65kg in weight. I have never had any sight problems since I was born. I have a very good vision. I was hit on my left eye by an object thrown at me by my brother. I had a minor cut at the upper side of my left eye, very close to the hairs above the eye. That happened about 3-4days ago. Though the eye got swollen, but it's now back to normal. The only complaints I have is that I still have some blood stains in the whitish part of the eye, and I still feel some minor pains when rotating the eyes. Please help as regards these. Thanks.

Probably you had lid and conjunctiva(thin transparent skin on white part of the eye) tear. The red spots are bleeding areas under this layer and pain is because of the tear especially during blink. This heals in 3-5 days. You need antibiotic and lubricating eye drops
