Eye swelling

2017-10-23 08:19:43
I've had a swollen eye since Saturday, I've warm & cold compressed it & used Olopat due to infection. But it's still not gone completely, it is better than before though except that it pains a lot. I don't know what I should be doing or which medicines to have as I have cold and flu as well.
