Swollen eyelid hurts like hell?!


Question: Swollen eyelid hurts like hell?
So I woke up yesterday with slight pain in the bottom eyelid of my right eye. The eye was covered in "eye boogers" (don't know how you say it, not native eng speaker)... I went to work and haven't put much thought into it, so the next day, today that is, it has gotten even worse, it now hurts every time I blink, and my eyelid is all baggy and swollen. Anyways I'm going to the doc first thing in the morning (10pm here), but I was wondering if anyone knows what could be the problem and how serious is it? Thanks...

Answers:

Sounds like pink eye, easily cured.



a stye? (sort of a pimple)

pink eye? (conjuctivitis infection)

Bell's palsy? (paralysis of half the face due to virus for about 6 months).

Something else entirely?

You might try applying warm clean washcloths for comfort's sake.

And maybe take an anti-inflammatory (like ibuprofen, naproxen or aspirin). You can take tylenol with it if you want, just don't mix anything that is already a mixed product (like Anacin or Excedrin).



sounds like you need to smoke less. CIGARETTES arent chill...........
