A member asked:
My son is 9 years old. his eye started hurting and now 20minutes later his eye is swollen shut?

Thoughts: This is often a response to getting a foreign body stuck between the surface of the eye & lid, or a foreign body stuck in the eye itself. The least it would be would be a quick response to a big bite near the eye. With that much quick reaction you should have it evaluated at urgent care.
