Right eyelid swollen
My one year and 4 months old daughter's right eyelid (below eye) was swollen when she woke up in the morning yesterday.. we went to a pediatrician. He suggested to give citrazine syrup as he thought it might be an insect bite. The swelling gradually reduced after we gave her the medicine. He asked me to give the second dosage tonight only.. But now (same time as yesterday morning) it got swollen again. Is this anything serious?
