Suggest the cause and medications for bumps around the eyes
Patient: I have a small yellow bump where my bottom eyelashes are. It's not on my eye, it's on the top of my skin and it hurts when I blink; it kind of looks like a small ball of puss. I don't want to pop it because I'm pretty sure it isn't a pimple. What do you think it is; what should I do? Doctor: Hi,Welcome to HCM!I believe you are suffering from infection of eye lids or related glands, commonly called a 'stye'. You'll need to take antibiotic eye drops in order for it to heal. If too much pus accumulates, it might even need drainage by incising. Kindly consult an ophthalmologist and start with antibiotic eye drops.I hope your query is solved. Feel free to ask if you have any doubts. Regards,Dr. Sridhar
