1440587 tn?1284040516 One thing I read today said that if your eyelid is red then you may need antibiotics, which he did not prescribe. Today when I woke up my eyelid is very red and more swollen (seems worse in the morning), do you think I should get antibiotics?
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 im 15 years old and my eyelid has been hurting alot on monday and tuesday when i woke up, i found out that my eyelid was slightly swollen and i checked to see inside my eyelid and saw a little pimple.

Avatar f tn Hello - I have a swollen upper eyelid (for over one month now). My optometrist and medical dr. have advised this is some sort of allergy (I am allergic to mold, pollen and trees). I have been given allergy meds and steroid drops but with no success. Eye is less swollen in morning (looks normal) and then gets worse as I go through the day. Can an allergy cause only one eye to swell for this length of time?
Avatar m tn I'll add as much information as possible to my topic. If this isn't in the right forum section, please move it to the correct one, but read my post first. I guess this could also go in the allergies section. I am nearly 16 years old, now a Junior in High School, and have had problems with bumps and swelling on my eyelids since the 4th grade. I woke up this morning to my right eye being half open. Looking in the mirror, it's swollen yet again.

Avatar f tn I hope someone can help me with this! It started 3 weeks ago, I noticed my right eye was a bit swollen and heavy. It also felt more watery but there's no pain. I've been searching online and is seems like a chalazion but i have no specific bump at ALL. There's just redness all over my eyelid and it's just swollen and heavy-like. It's at its worst in the morning.

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 f tn We were on holidays a fortnight ago with an early morning flight, later that day I could feel almost a stiffness developing in my left eyelid, by the next morning the eye was up! Few days later , same week, we had a bit of a sand storm, thought I'd got a littel sand in my right eye, sure enough next morning right eye was up!
Avatar m tn What would cause severe (almost swollen shut) eyelid swelling in the morning (uponn waking) - the eyelid skin is stretched and once the edema is gone, they skin is very red and painful. We have pretty much ruled out allergies. Of note, is a head trauma sustained 1.5 years ago (back of head hit pavement twice) - am still undergoing various treatments to relieve pressure in head - could manipulation of the nerves in the back of my head/neck cause eyelids to swell? Any help is very welcomed.
Avatar n tn Swelling of an eyelid that lasts 2-3 years needs to be evaluated to see if there is tumor or lesions in lid.
Avatar f tn I looked in the mirror and notice the corner is a little swollen. Also i notice when i pull down my eyelid i see like this idk what to call it i think its part of the eyelid that holds the eye, it is also a little swollen . . . I don't im freaking out i pray its just a minor eye infection and nothing serious that can damage my eye -.
Avatar f tn While laying in bed I noticed a small bump on my cornerlower eyelid that was painful. (very tiny tiny bump) next morning woke up to crusty eyelashes, white part of eye slightly swollen, and pinkish color eye and swollen upper eyelid. Went to eye dr he wasn't sure what the issue is, informed wasnt pink eye nor a stye, but prescribed maxitrol to use twice a day.
Avatar f tn I have had one swollen eyelid for over one month now. My optometrist and medical doctor say it is an allergy although allergy meds are not working nor are steriod eye drops prescribed to me.
Avatar m tn I was diagnosed with dry eye I received drops, received instruction wipe the lid in the morning with the eyelid scrub wipe to prevent infection and use a warm compress and massage my eyelid just above my eyelashes. My eyes aren't tearing anymore and I wake up with the whites of my eye white and clear they aren't tearing anymore.
Avatar f tn Hi there! I had same problem as you. I underwent eyelid surgery in January this year. I had huge bags under my eyes and could't properly see because of swollen upper eyelid, I found clinic and I am satisfied. Healing was really fast. The worst thing - I couldn't wear make up for a month. But results are great. I look younger.
Avatar f tn If it's neurological there shouldn't be any actual swelling of the eyelid involved, hmmm if the eyelid is swollen then it 'could' make the eyelid just look like it's drooping down, have you seen your GP about it yet? As aspen mentioned it could be an infection or even a reaction bug bite on the eyelid, if it's been a few days and it's still swollen it'd be worth getting your GP to check it out. Hope that helps....
Avatar n tn Is it only the lid? You could put a cold compress on the LID. When somethng like this happens you can also call the poison control center 24 hours a day. The doctor will review this post. I am not a doctor?
Avatar f tn Last night I felt pain on my upper eyelid. This morning was swollen and it is getting swollen by the minute associated with pain, no matter. I put cold compresses but it did not help. What do you suggest. thanks.
Avatar n tn I wake up in the morning with the area around my left eye very swollen. And my eye is slightly "teary". I've been told by and eye doctor that I have allergy eyes, but I've tried allergy meds. and they do not seem to help. And why is it only my left eye? The swelling goes down a little during the day, but settles in a bag and my eye. It looks awful.
Avatar f tn Hello, just today I found out that I had a small lump of blood beneath my upper left eyelid. I don't know if it's dangerous or not. A few weeks ago, both of my eyes were swollen and the left eye took on a dark spot near the corner of it, right where the small lump is now. This morning I found it weird that there was blood caked around my eyelid and a mucus like discharge that had blood in it. I think one of my blood vessels is possible blocked and swollen, but I'm not a professional.
Avatar n tn Its wed now, i woke up monday morning and it was swollen, i felt like it was lower but everyone said it didnt look any different. Tuesday it was very sore. Today i couldnt open it, because it was so swollen. It was "crusty" or anything, it was just THAT swollen up. I'm really worried about it. I tried to google it but i didn't find anything exactly like mine. Should i go to the doctor? Will it pass?
Avatar f tn Felt like something was irritated at the base of my eyelashes. Woke up yesterday morning with a swollen eye lid. Still swollen today and eye lid is red. I was thinking that it might be a stye but there is no little bump anywhere on my eyelid. I have been applying warm compresses throughout the day. Think this is a stye forming or something else? Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.
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 m tn it was on February that i felt that every morning i had dry eyes and irritation became worse and i went to ophtalmologist and he gave me predforte and the dryness got better but my eyelid were swollen and i also noticed that whenever i go under outdoor heaters this swelling becomes worse even if i'm sitting far away from the heater and i don't feel the heat!!
Avatar n tn HI, Each morning I wake up and my eyes appear identical. Within an hour, more and more of the left eyelid is showing and it stays this way all day. Not sure if it's swollen or ptosis. Looking back at pictures, it has been this way for about 5 years but now is starting to bother me. I've had a CT on sinuses and tests for thyroid issues. Next step is an MRI. Any idea what causes this? I am so self conscious and embarrassed by this.
Avatar f tn Several months ago I started using make up again, had no problems, and then out of the blue, again, my left eyelid got swollen, then red, then itchy and then scaley. The skin on my eyelid is so stretched now that even when it's not swollen, it droops over my eyelashes. I went to see an ophtalmologist again recently, but he said he it was probalbly from sleeping on my side (which I did not really buy).
Avatar n tn Over the past 36 hours my left eyelid has swollen drastically, is very painful, difficult to close, burns when closed... I recently broke my nose and had swollen eyes (drastic) for approximately one week after trauma from a suspected seizure. Any clue as to what's going on with my eye?
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.
