How To Get Rid Of Pocket Of Fluid Between Nose And Eyes?
I burned my forehead 3 days ago.. The past two days my forehead was swollen as a result. The swelling in the forehead has subsided and my sunburn is no longer painful. However, it appears that I have a small pocket of fluid in between my nose and corners of my eyes. Probably from the fluid that subsided in forehead. How can I get rid of this? I have been taking anti-inflammatories (ibuprofen) and putting cold pack on it.

Hi
You seem to have developed reactive edema over the face as a result of the skin burns.
Since you have been taking oral anti inflammatory agents without much relief , you might need to take some oral antihistamines along with antibiotics .
Continue with anti inflammatory agents and see a local doctor if the edema persists.
