Swollen eye from bug bite, how should i treat it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Steroid cream: Use hot moist packs and you can rub 1% over the counter hydro-cortisone cream 2 times daily on the bit area until swelling is gone. Do not use the steroid cream in the eye nor more than 2 weeks. See your family doctor if it gets worse.
