what could this be?


Question Posted Saturday March 25 2006, 7:23 am

I've had this tiny bump under my eyelid for a week or so. It's not painful or anything, but when I rub my fingers over my eyelid I can feel it. What could this be? Is it worth getting a doctor to check it out?

It could be a stye or an ingrowing eyelash. If it's a stye (which is rather like a zit on your eyelid, it will go but you can get cream from a pharmacy to help, but don't touch it then touch the other eye, as it's contagious and you'll pass it on. If it is an ingrowing eyelash you may need to see a doctor as they can get very painful and may need to be removed, this isn't a big thing to have done though. If it lasts longer than a week or so you should get it checked out with a doctor. Good luck.

It may be a syst or stye. I would go and get it checked. But try not to worry to much about it. If you wear eye make up, its possible that its an reacction to that. So maybe stop wearing it for a while and see if that helps.

I had one of those once, and it was a stye. Its basically another word for a pimple under your eyelid. Mine however, hurt a little but not too much to complain about. Do you have swelling in your eye?? Because if so maybe it is a stye, thats what happened to me. I would visit a doctor just incase if it doesnt get better ::wait a few days maybe::. I just had to buy some stye medication at Stop & Shop and then it downsized quickly. :] HOPE I HELPED

Well speaking from someone who had the same type of thing happen to them I would say get it checked out soon. I had one of those in my eye, so I went and got it checked out and it turned out to be a cyst. All they do for it is they numb your eye and get it out. It takes about 10 minutes, then you wear an eyepatch for a few hours then your okay again. It's not really a big deal but it is something you should get checked out. Hope I helped!

A calcium deposit maybe? I have no idea. Since it's not painful, there's no rush. I'd wait a week and if it doesn't go away or changes (gets bigger or starts to hurt) then you might as well go to a doctor just to be safe. Good luck!
