ncblondie answered Thursday March 16 2006, 5:21 pm: It will take a few days for you to get back to normal. Did they prescribe anything for you to take for inflammation? If not, you might ask about taking Tylenol or Ibuprofen. Both of these are anti-inflammatory medicines that will help the swelling go down and deal with any pain you might have.

It will get rid of the swelling as fast as it can. Give it by the end of the day today, or tomorrow and I bet your swollen cheeks will be gone. You'll get back to normal, it just takes a few days. Continue with the ice, though! Good luck :] [ heyybaby's advice column | Ask heyybaby A Question ]
