Suggest Treatment For Swelling In Eyebrow And Cheek

I snorted bath salts and now have a swollen area above my left eye (eyebrow) and my left cheek. There are firm lines of what seems to be pus. I have been applying cold compress to it as well as switching off with a steaming towel. How do I fix this?

Hello,
Welcome to HCM,

Your history and symptoms suggests me that you are having some swelling on the left eye brow and the cheek following snorted salts bath.

It looks like there is some skin irritation following the bath, which is causing all these symptoms. For these symptoms i would suggest you to follow
1.Apply Hot fermentation, which will reduces the edema.
2.Tab Lyzer-D, which will help to reduce the edema and the pain.
3.Apply calamine lotion over the swelling to sooth it.

These measures will help to reduce the symptoms. If it ids not coming down by a day, you need to consult your doctor for further advise.
Thank you.
