Very swollen left eye.
by kelli2006, Apr 15, 2007 12:00AM
I got poked in the eye last night. Then i went to blow my nose and my left eye immediately swelled shut. I put ice on it but it didnt do anything for the swelling. Today it hurts pretty bad and looks like it it turning black. What should i do? Can I get the swelling down by tomorrow morning? Thank you

you need to go be seen by someone. i dont know if you can 'get the swelling down' or not b/c i havent seen your eye. this is definitely a case for an exam
