Suggest Treatment For Swollen And Sore Eyebrow

I pulled or sprained my back. My doctor prescribed Naproxen and Cyclobenzaprine. They seem to be helping my back which is good. Yesterday I had my eyebrows waxed and by the evening the area between my eyelid and eyebrow was very swollen to the point it covers my eyelid when open. They are slightly sore to the touch. last night I tried icing them down. I have never had a reaction to having my eyebrows waxed in the past.

Hello,
Thanks for the query,
You might be suffering from allergic contact dermatitis.
It is an allergic reaction of skin to a particular product to which you came in contact with.
Please apply a steroid cream like fluticasone.
Also take an antihistamine tablet.
This will give you relief.
A photograph would have helped me in giving a closer diagnosis.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
