Suggest Treatment For Swelling On Forehead

Fell asleep on the toilet, pitched forward and hit my forehead on the toilet paper holder. Had a big goose egg , which is almost gone from applying ice, but today I've noticed that my eyes are getting purple,particularly the inside corner of the rt eye. Did not knock myself out and have had no unusual symptoms. Should I apply ice to my eyes now?

HI
Well come to HCM
No need to apply ice now, the purple color near the eye could be spreading of soft tissue swelling and this is very common and rapid in face area sue to little loose skin, better to have anti-inflammatory drug and the best would be Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg three times in day.
I find this answer helpful
