Answers:
It could be pinkeye, but if you don't have symptoms like redness or itching, it sounds a lot like you have a chalazion, which is where a duct inside your eyelid is blocked!. Try hot compresses 2-3 times a day for 15-20 each and massage the eyelid (I know, it's tedious and sounds like a waste of time)!. If the puffiness doesn't go down within a few days, see an optometrist who can prescribe you some medication for whatever you might have!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It might be an infection like pink eye that needs antibiotic eye drops!. Or a foreign object, like dust!. Or a stye (pimple on the eyelid)!. Try some lubricant eye drops and if that doesn't help soon, go to the doctor or ER or urgent care!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
