Suggest Remedy For Puss Filled Bumps On Eye
I have a bump in my lower eye lip and it seems to have puss in it. Do I need to go to my eye doctor. I called them when it first appeared and the nurse told me it was probably a stopped up oil gland but it has been a week and doesn t seem to be getting any better.

hi dear
what you are mentioning is most likely a chalazion which is a chronic inflammation of meibomian gland
you have not mentioned if it is painful
my advice to you is to start abroad spectrum antibiotic eye drop and oral also only if its painful
do a lot of hot fomentation
wait for a week
if doesnot subside you can get it incised under local anaesthesia
good luck
