Pediatrician,  's  Response
Your child seems to be suffering from an allergic reaction to the paint, the smell of which is probably still in the air. The hypersensitivity to the material in the paint is causing her respiratory distress and swelling of eyes. Give her calpol only if she has a fever. T-minic is an effective antiallergic but I guess the effect is not staying as she is still continually exposed to the offending agent. She would probably get relief once the smell of the paint dies down. Also wash her face and eyes frequently with plain water and she should get some relief.
