Moebominitis

My dear,
Thanks for sending your query to us.
These bumps are moebmian gland infection,which hasleft a granuloma there.
What you need to do is give it hot foamentation.Put a warm pack over it for 5 minutes.Apply steroid eye ointment over lid margin and massage.Continue with this for about 1 week,you should feel the gland shrinking.
Do get back to me in case of any further query in this regard.

Brief Answer:
Chalzion

Detailed Answer:
My dear,
Thanks for getting back to me.
These swellings are called chalzion.They are encountered routinely in our practice.They respond well to treatment and a very small number of them have to be submitted to surgery.
The eye ointment we need is dexamethasone or hydrocortisone, with or without antibiotics.This has to be tried for about a week to assess the improvement.
