A Family Doctor’s Tale – Best Yahoo Answer – SWOLLEN EYELID


Swollen eyelid !!?
today at soccer training i got hit with a ball in the eye and now my eyelid is swollen what do i do??


when will it go away??








Best Answer - Chosen by Voters




when your eye is hit by a ball, the eyelids and the tissues around the eye are injured resulting damage to walls of the cells releasing the fluid from the cells.
This will cause swelling in the tissues surrounding the eye.


If a blood vessel is damaged blood may exude from the blood vessel causing a blood clot and swelling.

You can put a cold compress on the eye which should shrink the blood vessel and reduce the swelling.

In most cases swelling of the tissues of the eye will subside within 5 days.

Blood clots may take longer to subside.
