hot compress with epsom salt might help dry out the bump and get it to go away.

s office. As a conservative measure he can treat the chalazion with an effective hot compress, which is not a warm washcloth. Put about 1/2 cup of uncooked plain white rice in a pantyhose foot, tie a knot, cut off the remainder, and you have a rice baggy. Microwave for 20 - 40 seconds depending on the power of your microwave. Apply as a hot compress 2 - 3 times per day. The rice should stay warm for at least 3 minutes - if not, microwave longer.

My grandaughter's eye was sollen last wk. and I put hot compresses on it for 2 days, and it went away. Now it's back. What should I do?

It is probably due to rubbing. Try cold compresses. Dr. O.

I put that on, and the next morning i woke up and my eye was swollen. it is now thursday, and my eye is still very swollen. I think I might go see my eye doctor tomorrow. any suggestions?

I'm not sure of eye drops but I find hot compresses have helped quite a bit... but my eyes aren't the worst part of my allergies so I'm not sure if it would help as much if your eyes are really inflamed/itchy.

I put a hot compress on it and got a decent amount of pus out (this was yesterday). Today I woke up with my eye swollen as well as another white head on it. So I did another compress and alot came out. Then the swelling on my eye went pimpledown some. Still looks somewhat bruised like I got punched in the eye... later in the day I got a more pus out. It still hurts and on that side of my face and head hurt pretty bad (the headache is back but more localized).

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.

i used a hot compress to soften up the crust/scab,then sanitized some tweezers with a match and rubbing alcohol and proceeded to pick off the crust/scab. i think it might scar but that is not a problem for me. it looks way better now compared to two days ago.

One time leads to little irritation (itchiness), but warm compress and cold compress get it over in a couple of day. In 2014, she woke up with a swollen eyelid (eye infection on eyelid)! Is the hormone at puberty a factor as she is producing more oil? How to prevent that from happening? Should I have her use diluted baby soap to wash her eyelids daily? Or some OTC eyelid wipes? Or warm compress twice a day?

very painful and annoying, do you have any suggestions that can relieve a swollen eye lid? I have tryed a cold compress, it didnt seem to work at all. I have tryed a very warm compress and it will take away some swelling but still in alot of pain and the swelling seems to just come back. it has been three days now, two with the swollen lid. thank you.

Ive been hot compressing it and now it has a slight white head forming close to the eye lashes along with a lump. It looks like its in the early stages compared to the right eye, will hot compress and the doxcyline tablets make this go away>? i have the first one removed on the 13 may 2010 because everything i tried with this one has failed. probaly because i left so long witho out using hot compress and stuff because my doctor told me its was a sty.

Months ago I got a sty on my top eyelid and it was swollen and painful for about a week and then it seemed to go away. Only it left a small hard bump on my eyelid. It's painless and hasn't gotten any worse which is why I haven't seen a doctor. I just really want this bump to go away because it makes my eye look funny.

It includes softening the lid margins, removal of lid margin debris, applying an ophthalmic antibiotic ointment and avoiding the use of eye makeup. Application of hot compress could further facilitate recovery. This needs to be practiced long term for relief from repeated attacks of allergic symptoms. Besides avoiding the allergen which causes theses symptoms could further prevent attacks. If your symptoms are worsening consult your primary care physician.

immediately I began using warm compresses through out the day,hoping that it would prevent things from worsening but now, my eye is swollen shut. The bump was not on my eye LID, instead on brow bone.how can I supress the pain and alleviate the swelling?

In January I went to NYC and all of a sudden my right upper eyelid started to be swollen every morning. It never got to be extremely swollen but noticeably bigger than my left eye. I thought it was because of the cold weather up there (bcs I'm from south florida) so I did not think about it as much. When I for back to Florida, it still was swollen. So I tried to apply warm compress to it and it seemed like it was getting worse so I applied some cold compress and it got slightly better.

About a week ago I woke up and my eye was swollen and hurt a little. The next morning i woke up my eye was still swollen and I had a small knot under my eyelid so I assumed it was a stye and put hot compresses on it. After about 3 days the swelling was down but the knot has gotten bigger and is very painful when I touch it. It is very noticeable! Im starting to get worried about it, so should I see a doctor or any advice about what to do or what it is would be very helpful?

At this time, I decided to stop using Zymar, since my infected eye is 99% fine. I will just use the hot towel/compress over both eyes.

Non infectious causes are allergies, chemicals and injury. Sometimes swollen eyes can occur with other inflammations or infections of other parts of the eye like iris, cornea, lens etc. It's important that an element of injury needs to be ruled out so you will need to consult your primary care physician for further evaluation. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.

My left lower eyelid would get swollen as if there was a build up of fluid, so I do the a hot and cold compress to see which one helps, and also take Benadryl. After a day or so it seems to go away. Now it is on my upper eyelids only, one eye at a time. Normally it is the left and today it is the right. Takes a few days but it goes away. It also makes the sides of my face itchy but my eyes never have problems. Sometimes the night before it happens they get real dry and itchy.

I'm 34 weeks and I'm having the same problem it's normal I just use hot compress and try not to do much walk so that it can relieve some of that pressure down there

Hi all, so my right eye has been hurting me for a couple of days. It's extremely red in the inner corner only and right next to my iris at the center of the redness is a white bulb that sticks out. I have bright green discharge coming out of that eye and there's this pressure I feel on my eyeball similar to a pressure test at the eye doctor's office, only it's constant.

Hot washcloth compress. This is out there but my friends brother said ear wax helps too, I've never tried it though.

This can be done using a hot wet compress several times a day. I kow its painful, but as soon as it comes to a head and pops or drains, the pain should subside. If you are not getting relief...go to an Ophthalmologist...they can prescribe an antibiotic eye ointment and will instruct you to use "warm wet compress several times a day". LOL I think you have a general idea what to do. OH...STOP wearing eye make up! Throw out mascara and once healed buy new hypo allergenic type.

Is that cause it was a bit too hot???? I thought you were suppose to put it as hot as you could stand it, cause it felt hot, but not to where it burned me or bothered me. Any info of help would be great...........
