Ice should have been put on it immediately. ANY ICE OR ICE PACK SHOULD BE WRAPPED IN A TOWEL BEFORE APPLYING TO YOUR SKIN. Do not put a cold source directly onto your skin,as the effect could actually cause damage to the skin cells, as in frostbite. . You might just have to bear it until healing progresses. Just go out there and show people how to deal with it. If they ask what happened, just say " You should see what I did to the other guy!" Lol Hope it heals soon.

ice!

Lots of ice!!! You might want to take an aspirin too if you can...that usually helps with swelling.

warm green tea bags!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

You might want to get it checked out first. Maybe put a cool pack on it for now, but definitely get it checked out before you put any makeup on it.

Put ice on it, and be more careful

ice

Ice. then on Monday try cover up.

A big New York Stip steak, chilled.

You could try a pack of frozen peas wrapped in a towel.

just ice hon.

if it's hurting you could try a cortosone spray but i don't think much can be done for the swelling but ice.

anyone says anything, just tell them the old stand by

"YOU SHOULD SEE THE OTHER GUY!!"

umm ice i guess. or some oitment. go see a docter

do a combination of the first two anwsers! and also get one of those hot cllod packs! they are at cvs and walgreens!!!

Put ice on it. Leave it on for a few minutes.

raw meat, a steak or something

put an icepack on it. and if that doesnt work try the heat packs that go cold after so long the ones from the commercial that shack is in

Apply cold compresses to reduce swelling from an injury. Raise the head of the bed (or use extra pillows) to help reduce facial swelling.

Bathe your face often with cold water. When you can lie down
put a warm wash cloth on your face. You need to alternate the cold & warm. That must hurt! It usually takes a few days
to see it getting better and if you don't notice results then see
your Dr.

I would try cool compresses. Good luck.
