How To Reduce Swelling After Eye Surgery?

My sister had an accident the day before yesterday. She has a swelling right over her eye, she had 3 stitches on the eyebrow and swelling. She is not able to open her eye properly because of the swelling. Does this indicate any fracture or any serious eye injury?

It may be only accumulation of blood. give cold compression and take combiflam tablet for 5days. If required can take anti biotic like ampicillin 500mg two times daily for 5days. Now she will be normal.
