Lump under eye? what could it be?!


Question: Lump under eye? what could it be?
okay, so i need to know what this lump under my eye is...
It is under my bottom eyelid, between the outer and inner skin, so I cant see it..
It covers about 2/3 width of that area, and its in the middle. Its hard ish, and its been there for 2 or 3 months.
I went to a walk in clinic and they gave me antibiotic eye drops to take, they told me I had an eye infection. I used them for the appropriate amount of time and the swelling and pain went down a bit. now the lump is a bit harder, and stays the same size rather than swelling in the morning. It hurts when I touch it every once in awhile... Its stayed the same for 2 1/2 months or so...
what could this be?
Is it worth going to the doctor for?

You should go back to the doctor. He will probably tell you that you need to keep using the antibiotic, even for a little while after the lump has cleared up. If it doesn't go away with one round of antibiotics, you probably need to start another round asap. It will work better if you don't leave a big gap. The doctor will tell you better if you ask him all your questions. The nurse may know some too.
