Hit By A Cyclist. Developed A Pretty Bad Black Eye And Tingling Sensation. Will It Be Cured?

Posted on Mon, 3 Sep 2012

Question: Hello

On July 8 I was hit by a cyclist and developed a pretty bad black eye..

I took real good care of it. The swelling has almost gone but there is still a slight puffiness, a tingly feeling and a greyish line underneath my left eye. Will these go away?

Dear XXXXXX,

Thanks for the query.

Glad to know that your eye has recovered.The marks will fade away gradually.

If it was a forceful injury, there is a chance that some amount of XXXXXXX injury could have occured.To be on the safer side, get your eye examined by an ophthalmologist.Other than that, you dont have to worry and your eye will do just fine.

I hope I have answered you query.I will be available to answer any furthur queries.

Best regards,
Dr.Mihir Shah

That is indeed a relief to know. However, any idea how long it will take. Any way of speeding this up??

Dear,

The marks can take upto 3 months to fade away.Taking a multivitamin once a day for a month can help.
