Avatar m tn If this lump is right below the eye towards her nose, that's a classic sign of an abscessed tooth.....Yes, they can come up over night!!!!! The swelling does make it look like an eye issue, but it clearly is not! Something else: This happened to one of mine & off we went to have her teeth checked....The lump came up overnight & her eye was swollen shut.....Turns out, there was a splinter lodged in the side of her face.....It was under the skin & broken off...I could not feel it.
Avatar f tn 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. It is very painful when its open, but even more when its closed. Help? Its blurring my vision in my left eye, my pupil is very dilated, and its getting harder and harder to see. I need this infection gone!

Avatar n tn Maybe i wasnt totally clear, his eyeball is not swollen itself, but swollen around like he has a major black eye. Overnight, it started spreading to the other eye and we went in to the ER Sunday morning. The doctor said his eye was acute and may have an infection of the surrounding eye. He gave him different eye drops and set and appt for a new doctor. So far, we have been to 3 doctors with 3 different diagnoses. He is going to see another specialist this morning.

Avatar f tn I have an eye infection so severe that my eye is swollen shut. It started 4 days ago. I had a pain behind my eye. It felt like something was growing next to the bone of my eye socket along the inner left eye. The next day, there was no swelling, no redness, but it hurt to move my eye. The day after that, the eye lid and inner eye started swelling and there was a discharge from the corner of the eye next to the nose.

Avatar n tn I woke up with my right eye swollen on 12/1 right under my eye. It has stayed swollen ever since. Sunday it was swollen shut but since then it just has stayed swollen just underneath my eye. It has become dry and itchy. No redness of the eye. I have not changed a thing. I have taken allergy meds, Benadryl, and Pepcid. Nothing seems to be touching it. At this point its just a nuisance. Any suggestions? Do i need to get to a doctor?

Avatar n tn My son got hit in the eye with a basketball. It bounced off the rim and hit him, knocked him down. His eye is swollen shut, but when he forces it open, he says he see black & grey. Is this something to be checked out immediately, or should we wait a few hours to see if he improves?

1276940 tn?1564515084 Just came back from Urgent Care......my left eye is almost swollen shut, my eyeball is very red and according to the Dr I saw today it (the eyeball) is also inflamed & swollen. All this started yesterday afternoon.....we were inside a mall (and had been for a while) and all of a sudden my eye started watering & when I wiped at it I noticed some discharge also..... I assumed it was pink eye so I went all over town looking for OTC pink eye relief (of which I found none).

Avatar f tn Last night I was making dinner and I ended up in contact with raw chicken. I had dredged it in flour and was frying it. At some point before I got the chance to wash my hands, I think I touched my eye. A couple of minutes later my eye was itchy and swollen and really red so I put in some allergy drops just in case, and it cleared up a little bit, but I woke up this morning and it was crusted shut and still swollen and irritated.
Avatar m tn 9 F and his right eye was swollen shut and had blue and red bruises on the eye lid and under the eye he had also red patches on his legs and hands with small white dots which were itching. I went to the ER and by then the red patches went away almost completely but the eye looked worse, they assumed it was an allergy and gave him Benadryl. That didn’t work, the next morning when he woke up and his eye was shut completely I went to a Dr.
Avatar m tn My sister's left eye is swollen, red and almost swelled shut. The night before that particular eye was irritated and reddish but she woke up around 5 sobbing because of those reasons and to add to the problems, she cant even open her goodeye for some reason. Also, lights hurts her eyes. She wears contacts but she's never had a problem like this before. Should we take her to the emergency room or wait to go to the doctor??!!
Avatar n tn Last night I applied a patch of colloidal silver and slept with it on my eye. My eye oozed yellow stuff. It is also more swollen - into the upper eyelid portion. My doctor called to make me an emergency exam with an Opthamologist and the earliest he can see me is next Tuesdy. I do not have a fever, however, upon waking this morning my eye was 'glued' shut by the oozing. It was also very difficult to open. I can only open it a sliver. And, it is very painful.
Avatar f tn Swelling of one eye has gone down tremendously while the other eye is still nearly swollen shut. My question is about the swollen eye. Although it could be because that eye is still very swollen, but she can barely open the eye up and can only see through the inner corner of the eye. It had me worried so I took a look inside.
Avatar f tn How long will my eye be so red and swollen? Also, at night my eye still seals itself shut because of all the "gunk" that is produced in it overnight. Is this normal 5 days out from surgery?
Avatar n tn Today he woke up, with left side of his face swollen and eye almost swollen shut. Any recommendations. Please help. No insurance. Thank you.
