Any Suggestion For Swollen Eye And Cheek?

I am a 26 yo female and have had a large pimple on the right side of the bridge of my nose near my right eye. I tried to pop it today and some puss and blood came out but then within an hour it started swelling a lot and now my right eye is very swollen as well as my cheek under my eye. I have iced it, taken Advil and benadryl and the swelling is not getting any better. It has been getting worse over the last 8 hours. What should I do?
