Okay here's the craziest thing you may ever hear. Take a bra and wrap it under your chin and tie it on top of your head. Fill two zip-loc bags with Ice and stuff them in the cups of the bra. It holds the ice to your face while you sleep and will help with the swelling but nothing but time will make the swelling go away.
Ibuprofen is an anti-inflammatory drug so it should help, I would not recommend asprin, very harsh on your stomach. Try to eat something with the ibuprofen. hope this helps
