<human>: My 4 year old daughter bang heads with another little girl a couple of days ago while on holiday. She had a pretty bad lump but it s gone down and both her eyes and nose are now swollen and black. We are due to fly home tomorrow I a little worried and was wondering if she will be OK.
<bot>: Dear user these symptoms of Swelling Black eye is because of ecchymosis caused by bleeding into the layers of the skin of the eyelids as a result of injury or trauma you need to consult your doctor for examination to rule out eye injury. Meanwhile, I advise taking anti-inflammatory meds like ibuprofen or paracetamol and give her erythromycin local antibiotic cream head injury(only minor in this case), and eye pain on bending forward is suggestive of some retro-orbital collection(hematoma). This may need antibiotic treatment to prevent complications like orbital cellulitis. Also try for application of ice packs for 10-15 minutes almost every hour. It will take a few days for it to resolve. If any increase in swelling, pain or any discharge, I would suggest you to consult with a doctor in your area for a proper examination and management as it may be due to an infection. Wish you healthy life
