What Causes A Tender Lump On The Eyelid?
I have a bulge on the outer part of my right eyelid. It is always there, but just now it has lowered and seems to be irritating my eye. The round bulge is tender to the touch, and I m concerned it might be damaging to my eye if I wait till Monday to see my doctor. Is it okay to wait or better to go to er tomorrow

Hello
Monday is fine and this sounds like a typical stye that usually responds to a round of antibiotics, although it may need to be lanced and drained
