What Causes Puffiness At The Outer Corner Of The Eye?
Question: I have two puffy looking areas at the outer corner of my eye. I thought they were just puffy bags; however, when I stretched the upper puffy area a lump was there. It does move slightly when touched and feels hard. It is about the size of a small pea. What should I do?
Brief Answer:
provide me pitctures
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
welcome to HCM.
From the facts you have posted here,this small lump could be a stye but I am not sure.
For that,I will need to see that small lump in order to come at a certain diagnosis.
Without inspection,it is very difficult to tell about that lump around your corner of eye.
So,please take a good quality picture of your eyes and upload it.
I will give my opinion after that.
Awaiting your response.
