Suggest Treatment For Presence Of Fluid Pockets Near The Eyes

Hi, I am currently recovering from an episode of bells palsy. The symptoms began on June 25th, and peaked on 27th. I sought treatment and most of the symptoms have subsided, with the exception of my right eye still does not blink on it s own. I noticed today there appears to be a pocket of fluid in the lower inside corner of affected eye. Is there an over the counter medication I can purchase, or should I wait until I can schedule an appointment with my eye doctor?
