Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my 9 month old woke up with a swollen left eye lid, it looks a little red/purple on the lid. however 2 days ago my daughter had an allergic reaction and came up in a rash but that is now going, she has also lost her voice completely, but is eating and drinking fine.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Swelling of eyelids can be due to frequent respiratory infections, nasal allergy(not usual in an infant) with rubbing, pink eye, crying, and sensitivity to eye drops. If your daughter has lost her voice it is possible that she has laryngitis. I hope this is helpful. Please return if we can assist you again.
