Suggest Treatment For Small Bruise Above The Left Eye
Hi, I woke up this morning with dark red bruising around me right eye socked. Also a small bruise above my left eye socket. Have not had an injury, however have had a bad dose of the flu and have started on doxy. Cannot remember the tablet. Have been blowing my nose quite hard. Could it be a burst blood vessel. Thank you.
