Hi..
Welcome to HCM..
thanks for the query..
Is there any pain?
have you used any medication for that?
Did you have any similar episodes before?
if it a painless swelling it could be a chalazion a non-infective inflammatory swelling..
It needs a antibiotic steroid combination eye ointment to be applied for 2-3 weeks and if it persists it is generally advised to go for a surgical incision and drainage..
The doctor will decide the course of action depending on the severity..
Hope this information is helpful to you..Take care..
Will be available for further queries..
I find this answer helpful
