Suggest Treatment For Blacked Eyelid And Swelling After Hitting Forehead
Fell and hit forehead above eye on a boulder. Did not lose consciousness but immediately had major goose egg. This morning it was still swollen and my eye was starting to darken. This evening my eyelid is completely blackened and has more swelling. Swelling in forehead isn t as bad, but it has shifted. I now have swelling into the bridge of my nose and up into my hair. No headache and no nausea. I do have an indentation just above my eyebrow. Is this normal? Can it wait until tomorrow when I can get in to a clinic or is this ER worthy?

No there is nothing to worry and it will settle down in a weeks time and you would be alright, take some antiinflamatory drugs like Tab. Imol plus three times daily and Tab. Oflox 200 mg twice daily as a precautionary measure to avoid infections
