Reason For Swelling Around Eye And Puffy Cheeks?
My daughter has swelling around her left eye. Also, her cheek is puffy. But her eye appears fine. She has had this since yesterday, and the swelling has subsided a bit since then. No discharge or weeping or discoloration of the eye and no fever. What could this be?

Hello
It seems from the history that your daughter is having swelling around the eye and the cheeks.
Since the eye is appearing fine without discharge or discoloration and no infections the systemic causes needs to be ruled out. The causes need to be considered are anemia and hypoprotenemia.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
