Suggest Treatment For The Mild Swelling Around The Eye

I woke up and the bottom of my right eye is a bit swollen. I think it s from the pimple on my cheek bone. The swelling can only be noticed when I smile. Is the pimple the cause of this swelling? What can I do to reduce the swelling? And I use proactive so can I still use it today?

Hello dear,welcome to healthcare magic forum.
A nearby pimple can cause surrounding edema.But,it can also be from an insect bite you may have got previous night.A pimple needs antibiotics,and a bite reaction can be helped by anti-histaminics.
Proactive,if you were already taking,can be continued.
Your doctor will guide you.
Ok and take care,
I find this answer helpful
