What Causes Swelling In Eyes After Popping A Pimple On The Eyebrow?

Hi, my daughter has a stubborn pimple in her right eyebrow which she has popped twice and continues to experience a lot of pain with it. She used warm and cold compresses and the pain persists and now her eye is almost swollen shut. Never expericence this before.

Hello
It seems from the history that your daughter is having swelling of the eyes after popping a pimple on the eyebrow.
This is because of inflammation resulting in edema of the eyes. The treatment is by use of antibiotics, antiinflammatory drugs.
Applying hot compression provides symptomatic relief.

Thank you
