Bump on inside of bottom left eye lid.. what is it?

Question

I have had it for a while, just noticed it like 2 weeks ago. It has never caused me any problems. About 30 minutes ago it starts hurting like I have something in my eye, but I checked and I have nothing in my eye. So, I have concluded that it has to be that bump on my bottom eye lid. For now it is not causing any problems unless I blink, then it hurts and makes my eyes water.

What is this?

Is it something serious that I should get checked out?

Answer 1

It sounds like either a stye or a chalazion. You should definitely get it checked out, but in the meantime try warm compresses on it...may help...

Good luck...

Answer 2

It is called a chalazion, and it could either get worse or just go away.  Definately make an appointment with an eye doctor.  There are eye drops he can prescribe that will help it heal.  A chalazion is a blocked oil duct, and can hurt and itch.  Rubbing and scratching your eye can cause other problems, so go to the eye doctor to get it taken care of.

Answer 3

a simple thing u can do without going to the doctor is letting ur eyes rest. bcuz i take it u wear contacts. let ur eyes breathe and try 2 wear ur glasses more often. i had one on my right eye and its nearly gone. the doctor told me to not wear my contacts for 2 days throw them out and put a new pair in. and when i wake up and b4 i go 2 sleep wipe the lining of my eyelids with a warm washcloth bcuz it is(as another answerer sed) ur ducts that are clogged. so jus b more careful. dont fall asleep in ur lenses and let ur eyes rest, good luck!!

Answer 4

I have had 2 of them and had them removed under local anaesthetic....go to the doctors.
