You might have a "stye" coming on!. Actually a hot compress will help best!. Take a hot damp wash cloth hot as you can stand for about 15 min at a time!. You might be able to control it before it get any worse, comes to a "head", infected and puss ridden!. If you don't do this and keep on touching your eyes with dirty fingers, it will get worse over the next week or two possibly spreading to your other eye!. Drink a lot of water too, it will help flush it out before it even develops further!. There's also an ointment called "stye" that might help if it gets worse!. Hope that helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The most common reason for swollen eyelids is allergy!. Try some OTC anti-histamine like Benedryl!. If it does not go away after a day, visit your doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
