my 3 yr old fell and hit her face on the floor. her lip is very swollen and somewhat lumpy. there is also clear fluid seeping from what appear to be pinpoint size holes. should i take her to the ER, is there anything they will be able to do for severe swelling or do we need to wait it out?

Hello,

If there is a pain you can give Ibuprofen as of now at the appropriate dose and then if still the pain is persisting or the swelling is increasing then you need to approach the emergency room.
     
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
