Hey- I was pummelled over a week ago at a
punk rock concert and although one of my
eyes is half closed, my right one is still
completely pitch black & shut.
Normal?-any advice, thanxx!!

Sounds like you got the snot beat out of
you!I would advise you to see a doc
soon!There could be some damage done and
you need to get it checked out.It does
take time for bruising and swelling to go
down and that could be the reason that
your eye is shut.To be certain that your
optic nerve is not damaged and that is the
reason your eye is shut,go see a
doctor-preferably an opthamalogist.Good
luck and stay out of the mosh pit for a
few weeks!Patty

Eyes Beaten Shut Posted: 10-21-04 08:47am
Thanx patty, I think that's what i'm gonna
do. Unbelieveably I was "punk'd on the
8th of october(like 2 fridays ago)! My
right eye at this moment is still pitch
black & swollen tight shut. My left
eye is also pitch black and pretty much
three-quarters closed. It's been pretty
much a bummer tryin to get time off to see
a doctor but don't really have a choice
any longer. It's been kinda cool wearin
an eye patch to work but i'm really an
absolute mess at this point. I'm also
afraid my nose is broken since it has
continued to bleed since the beating.
Anyway, I will definetely "try" to avoid
the pit for awhile & make the appy for
the opthamologist-take care and rock on!
