What Causes Pain In Eye While Blinking?
Hi. Just a few hours ago i noticed my eye hurt when I would blink. I rubbed it thinking it was dust but it became sore. There was no bumps on the outer corner of the eye and my mom suggested that it s a stye. I looked up how to treat it and since 2 PM I used a warm washcloth on my eyes for 15 minutes 3 times. I did not try to lance it. But just 30 minutes ago, under my eyelid I saw a pink bump. I m planning on telling my parents to take me to the doctors tomorrow to check it out. This never happened to me before. If this news is important, I m 16 and I get really freaked out over things and I want to talk to you to get a doctors opinion. Thank you.

Well I read your history. "eye hurts when it it blinks" points towards FOREIGN BODY in eye which cannot be seen by naked eye n requires ophthalmologist consultation to remove it. And warm compression still do no harm to eyes, so you need not to worry about "pink bump "
Just consult your ophthalmologist to reach proper diagnosis & start treatment accordingly.
For any further query, you can contact me directly.
