Avatar f tn Hello about 3 days ago my bottom eyelid was tender to touch or put eyeliner on,it was not discolored or puffy/ yesterday my btm eyelid under eyelashes was swollen looked like fluid was trapped/Wednesday am my bottom eyelid was almost swollen shut &very sore no discoloration or krusties / i have a little white pimple like spot on the inside middle part of bottom eyelid ..... what is it????
Avatar n tn I thought at the time it might also caused by my eyeliner so I purchased non-allergenic line. I used this past weekend and eye lids are very sore and swollen. Went back on alergy medicine. I put liner on bottom of eye to test and see if it was liner, but nothing happened so I assume not. Why is this coming back and what do I do. Thanks.
Avatar f tn It is important to determine that the visual problem is due to the eyelid sore and not secondary to more internal structures like the blood vessels of the eye and retina. Apply a warm compress over the eye for 15 minutes. Seek immediate consult since this may be painful and you need antibiotics for this.
328799 tn?1276565732 I woke up this morning, with my eyes(the eye lids) reaaaaaally swollen, and redness around the skin in my eyes. So alerted I went to my doctor and he said I have Periorbital Cellulitis. He put me on 250mg of Apo-Cefuroxime/Cefuroxime Axetil - 1 tablet twice daily. Now of course me having anxiety I had to search it up, and it can turn into Cellulitis which is serious. So it this medication going to cure it? Cuz im scared of it affecting my brain. Thanks.
Avatar n tn I woke up 2 days ago with a sore eye/eyelid and it's tender to touch. The eyelid itself is a bit swollen, but other than that no specific symptoms. Any insight as to what may be going on? The most common result I see is stye, but I don't have a pimple or bump of any kind.
Avatar m tn I have a little pimple like thing in my inner eyelid on my top eyelid, and I've had it for about a year and half but I never thought anything of it. It's just like a little white bumb and it looks like a little fatty pocket and it white. But just recently in the past two days its starting to hurt. I know it doesn't have anything to do with the hair folicle because it on the inside of my eyelid but still visible.
Avatar f tn About three to four days ago my eye began to feel like I had been punched in the face on the left side. I woke up the next morning to find a swollen eyelid, and a few lumps about the size of a piece of rice to a pin head. I gave it a day then went to the after hours where they gave me drops. Its since been two days and it gets more swollen everyday, today being swollen shut. The outside is purple and red and the inside is bright red and the lumps are growing.
Avatar f tn Drooping swollen eyelid could be from head hitting floor. Sore throat and neck could be from screaming and whiplash from head hitting the floor. You need a little relaxation time and some anti-inflammatory treatment, maybe some physical therepy. Talk to your primary care doctor to get looked at ASAP and if lid is still abnormal, see an ophthalmologist also.
Avatar n tn Yesterday I had a bit of a red bump that looked like a pimple on my eyelid, which became more and more sore throughout the day. This morning I woke up with a swollen eye and the 'pimple' is still there. I tried putting ice on my eye to reduce the swelling but it's not helping so much. So, what should I do? And thanks for your help.
Avatar f tn I worn contacts sometimes, but when my vision got bad again I stopped using contacts. Since this summer, I noticed my left eye lid have been swollen. I have been told by my second doctor that that was because of allergies. She prescribed me anti-allergy drops but it didn't help. She also advised me warm presses, and it didn't help. However, now I switched back to the first doctor, she said that the swollen eye was due to the damage on my cornea.
Avatar m tn I've had 4 operations in the last 9 months for retinal detachment. After the first 3, my eye would always recover properly. The last operation which was done December 5th 2008, went well according to my doctor. I went to Africa for a little over a month to travel with family in January. I did everything the doctor told me, putting my eye drops in and not touching the eye as it healed. Now it's June, and for the past 3 months the upper eyelid on the affected eye has been swollen.
Avatar n tn i was diagnosed with bih in 2006 and ive been in and out of hospital since i was put on diamox xmas 2006 and i came off it noz 2007 and so far all has been fine no headaches anything and i noticed over the weekend that my left eye ball seems swollen compared to the right my eye lid is covering more of my left eye due to it being swollen. there is no pain or blurred vision or anything really and i just wondered if this could be anything to do with raised pressure again?
Avatar f tn Over the last six months i am having recurrent swollen eyelid, only one eye at a time but can be either eye, usually lasts 1 or 2 days, only upper eyelid, no pain, itchyness, blurry vision or bloodshot eyes. Had reoccured every 2-3 wks, have had 9wks now when it hasn't happened, and yesterday it reoccurred. GP has tested for thyroid problems, all clear. I have psoriatic arthrits, my consultant says its not related, can you help?
1618305 tn?1298758246 My left eyelid has been swollen for three days, there is no pain, no bump or itching, but i do feel slight pressure on my eye. It is swollen evenly through and very noticable compared to my other eye, i have tried warm compresses and iceing my eye but nothing has worked. It has not gotten worst but the swelling is still there and really worrying me. I do not have insurance so i can't see a doctor. How long is this going to last and what should i do?
535882 tn?1396576685 i have a cold. runny nose. sore throat, but my eyes this morning were swollen . one more than the other and on the less swollen one the eyelid has a bump in it, . any suggestions? , taking an antihistamine, plus eye drops. allergy, eye drops, plus doing saline nose rinse. ice pack, eyes also itch a little. any suggestion?
Avatar f tn It seemed that just the inner part (toward the nose) of the eyelid was red and swollen but the skin above my eyelid has also drooped over my lid. The redness is gone and although my eye still feels like something is not quite right and the lid is a little more dry than normal, it looks all better except for that drooping skin. Is that due to swelling? Will it get better? I am only 24, so I don't think that skin should be drooping already (& on just one eye).
Avatar m tn m seeing this thing when I look up, is my sore eyelid doing this? My left eye is healing now, I am not feeling pain like two days ago, the eyelid is a bit swollen, but not much like before. I'm trying not to obsess with this but is hard. In my country is in lockdown because the pandemic.
Avatar n tn I was treated for a chalazion on the left eyelid with an injection and the chalazion was cured. Now a few weeks later I recently had burning in both eyes and the right eye lid has a sore spot where the lashes are at. I went to sleep and woke up with a swollen bag under the eye. It appears to have drainage. What is going on?
Avatar f tn However, I feel pain coming from top eyelid of my right eye when I gently touch it, and feel pain when I blink. The pain is in one spot of the top eyelid. The pain spot it the to right hand corner of the right eye (corner away from the nose). Keep in mind that the pain is in one single spot of top eyelid. Meaning, if I gently touch any other part of top eyelid of the right eye, I DO NOT feel any pain. The pain is coming only form one spot which is top right hand corner of the eye.
Avatar n tn Im just confused because although I wake up with a swollen eyelid there is no pain and no itching. Would an allergic reaction to something cause upper eyelid swelling?
Avatar f tn t hurt but is uncomfortable for my eyelid crease when my eye is open. If i worry about it, the swelling increases and takes over my entire eyelid. I take phenergan which knocks me out and sleep it off or another antihistamine. It usually goes within a couple of hours but for swelling of my whole eyelid usually takes a day until the puffiness has gone. I have a cough at the moment and the doc says it is caused by asthma as the cough is dry and no cold symptoms or anything.
Avatar f tn ve been having false eyelashes for about a year , but the last time I had them I reacted to them almost immediately- swollen bottom eyelids and red , I saw gp who said i needed them off and gave me an antihistamine, any way since then I have been suffering intermittent swollen bottom eyelids ( mainly my right eye) , it will be ok for maybe a week and then just randomly swell again , if I take an antihistamine quickly the swelling goes down again for maybe a week ?? Any ideas ?
Avatar f tn Would primary ocular herpes be more likely to present itself as a stye vs looking more like a cold sore/ blister? No pain, swollen lid or tearing… just a stye and blurry eye… for weeks?
Avatar f tn I often wake up with a large, swollen eyelid. This has happened for over a month now. It alternates between both the left and right eye, top or bottom eyelid, and sometimes even both. There is no pain, and the swelling is normally reduced after using a cold compress... I have not noticed any patterns as to when the swelling occurs, and went weeks without makeup to see if that would help (if it was an allergic reaction.) Nothing seems to be effective, what could be the problem?
Avatar n tn As the day went by, it started hurting when I blinked and today it is a little more swollen than yesterday, but not too swollen. It hurts when I blink and the top corner of my eye is tender to touch. There seems to be no signs of anything resembling a stye. I applied some ice last night to see if the swelling would go down, but it doesn't seem like it will. Other than the swelling, my eye is not red and there is no discomfort besides when I blink. Could this be an injury?
Avatar m tn After a few minutes the region became sore and developed an irritating headache. I still have a sore eyelid only on the left side, I've looked in the mirror and didn't notice any sign of redness or swelling. Just this sensation. I wonder if pressure on the eyes can cause this.

Avatar f tn I also visited an opthalmologist who indicated that I have 20/20 vision and no issues behind my eye but that my face is assymetrical (which he said may be normal for me as it is for most) but that my swollen eye appears slightly set back from the other eye (I never noticed this nor has anyone else who knows me). My medical doctor says this isn't so. Would this type of issue cause a swollen eyelid?
