NEY MD

First Anniversary 5 Love Its Name Dropper Combo Breaker
in Not Engaged Yet
I woke up yesterday and my eyelid was slightly swollen (not very noticeable at all) and really sore. That persisted all day. I woke up this morning and it is three times the size it was yesterday and even more sore. My eye is watering a lot, but it is just tears, nothing gross like with pink eye. It doesn't itch at all. Anyone know what this could be from? BF says he won't speak to me if I don't go to the doctor, but I HATE going to the doctor for things like this.

    I've had my fair share of eye issues, but I'd recommend going to a doctor. It might not be an infection, but I wouldn't mess around with my eyes. Only a doctor can help if it is an infection. Sorry, I'm on your BF's side :P

    Csousa,
    As much as I HATE saying this... Especially since I Despise, loathe and all around DETEST going to the doctors....I think you need to go get it checked out... My eyes are one thing I don't mess around with..  :( I know you hate going to the doctor for things like this...trust me... but, it would probably be smart.

    *hugs* I hope you feel better!!

    It sounds like a stye on the inside of your eyelid... use a clean wash cloth and soak in hot water. Hold this closely to your eye every couple of hours. Make an appt with a Dr, you probably need antibiotics.

    I agree with all of this. There are a few things I won't mess around with, and my eyes are one of them. Go to the Dr.

    That is what BF said too. Would that cause the entire lid to swell? It isn't one area of the lid, it is the entire thing equally swollen.

    Grr, I suppose you ladies may be right and I should just suck it up and go.

    It's kinda looks like a sty on crack:

    That's what I was going to say. I had a stye in my eyelid when I was in middle school. The exam wasn't a big deal, and they gave me prescription eye drops that helped almost immediately.

    Go!  Get your perscription, and get your eye under control. I also don't mess around with my eyes.  I already have bad enough vision, but I'm rather partial to what I do have.

    Ok fineeee, I made an appt for tomorrow at 10:30. With my luck by the time I wake up tomorrow, my eye will be miraculously fine and they will look at me like I'm nuts.

    On the bright side, for work tomorrow we are supposed to tour a facility that is 1.5 hours away starting at 9 am. Since my appt is smack in the middle, I won't be able to go on the tour- aw shucks!
