Suggest Treatment For Swollen Eye Lids In A 22 Months Old Child

My 22 month old woke up with a swollen eyelid and a few bug bites on her arm and leg. It looks like mosquito bites. I have given her 2 mL of Benedryl at 9am and again around 1:30pm... She woke up from her nap and it appears a bit more swollen. What should I do?

Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

Its likely to be due to allergic reaction to the bite.
I would suggest you to give Syrup Phenargan which will be really helpful.

In case you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.

Wishing you happy and healthy life

Take Care
