Sir Douglas 22 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2007 So, I figured a hockey forum is as good as any to ask about black eye advice. I did a search on this but it didnt really come up with too much so here it goes. Last night I got pretty much the two cheapest shots I've ever seen and my left eye is pretty ridiculous. I've had one or two black eyes before but never even close to this bad so I never really bothered to look into things some people do/use to try to help them out.Beside time and ice do you guys have any methods you've used to help bad black eyes before?Thanks...

I even went to the DMV to try to get my license picture changed when I had one. :lol: Now that was a funny answer,thanks for the laugh 'Kosydar'.Not really much else I've found other than initially icing it and letting it take its own course.Unless its REALLY bad then you need to get yourself to a doctor to check for fractures and such like.

Blueline05 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2007 You cant really do much for it other than ice and take an anti-inflamatory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Douglas 22 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2007 ya...its pretty ugly as far as black eyes go but luckily i'm pretty positive there are no fractures or anything.i never used anything but ice and such either, everything else ive heard just seems gimmicky to me.

willy0314 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2007 I had one once from a puck to the face - entire eye was swollen shut for a couple days, cracked orbital bone. The only thing you can really do is ice it. Remember its ugly, but its still bad ass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
