Answer
Overdrinking before bedtime or excessive medication intake may lead to pediatric facial and eye swelling. Common causes include overdrinking before bedtime or consuming too much salt, which can cause water retention in the body. Additionally, menstrual irregularities or insufficient sleep may also cause edema. It is recommended to reduce salt intake, increase fluid circulation, avoid excessive drinking and cold drinks, eat more calcium-rich foods, and pay attention to evening meals to alleviate symptoms of edema.
