Small red bump on lower eyelid?!
Question:
Small red bump on lower eyelid?
I have a small red bump on my right lower eyelid. It is on the inside of my eyelash and I noticed it months and months ago when I was having problems with my contacts. I was told it was probably a stye but it has not gotten better and I have noticed it has a small black bump in it the size of a black head. I am not due for an eye exam until October... should I be worried or can I wait till then to got it looked at?

Answers:
It could be irritated. Or if you wear make-up and someone else used it than that could be it. But I'd call your doctor and ask if you should go in and get it checked out.
