Hello, i got too much sun this weekend, and i am very swollen under my eyes. what can i use to reduce the swelling?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Swelling: I would recommend applying a cold pack (ice wrapped in a cloth), wearing sunglasses to protect your eyes from the light, and perhaps applying some over the counter hydrocortisone to the skin of the lower lid. Just be careful the cream does not enter the eye.
