How can I help the swelling caused by Excel V Beam?

October 31, 2015
Asked By:smw9276 in Sherman Oaks, CA

I had excel v beam yesterday (Friday). I woke up today and am so swollen my eyes are almost shut! Its Saturday, and I am panicking because I can't miss work Monday. My dr said to expect "slight swelling" but never mentioned anything like this. In fact he told me I would be fine for the plans I had for tonight (Saturday)! What can I do to help the swelling go down, and will I be okay for work on Monday, which is I guess Day 4?
