Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. My father was beaten up last night, and his eyes are swollen very badly. There's also a cut on his eyebrows from a stool. What should I do? I hope you can give me a solution. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Traumatic eyelid edema requires intravenous infusion of anti-inflammatory drugs. In the first two days after the injury, cold compresses should be applied to the eyes. After two days, cold compresses should be continued to promote complete recovery, working in conjunction with medication. If the wound is large, it is recommended to go to the hospital for debridement. Anesthesia and tetanus antitoxin should be administered. If the wound is small, it can be cleaned with hydrogen peroxide for sterilization, and the wound should be kept dry at all times, avoiding contact with water.
