Why is my eye puffing up?!
Question: Why is my eye puffing up.?
right under my left eye, it's puffing up.
it looks like a mini balloon..
it happened just after i had two pieces of toast and some sodium crackers, as far as i know i'm not allergic to either, considering i've eaten both many times before and nothing ever happened.
it's been like this for about a half hour, i tried putting ice on it to take away the swelling and no luck. why is my eye puffing up.?Health Question & Answer

Answers:
I had the same thing happen to me, actually 3 times. Up until the last time I could never get to the doctor before the swelling went down. Mine lasted usually around a few hours. The last time I went to the doctor while swollen, looking like I was beat up! The doctor said it was allergies and gave me a benadryl. It went away within minutes. Try taking a benadryl if it goes down you'll know your allergies are just flaring up. Hives also can cause the eyes to swell as I found that when I was researching when I was having the problem. Hives can be caused by a multitude of things including stress. Everyone's bodies react differently. You should at least take a picture and show to your doctor. If it doesn't go down though, you should go to your doctor.Health Question & Answer
