Try a compress a water soaked cotton wool and bandage placed over the swelling to reduce it or give immediate relief. If this fails speak to your pharmacist or family doctor about the appropriate treatment. If the swelling is due to an accident rather than a medical condition you should seek urgent medical advice from an Accident and Emergency Department or Emergency Treatment Room.
