What Is The Cause Of Swelling On The Eyelid?
My son (2 months old) has little soft purple color swelling on his left eyelid. Seems, it does not pains but not able to find why this is there. At the time of his birth there was nothing on his eyelids. He was completely healthy. Please let me know what could be the reason for it. How can it be cared? Thanks

Hai... By what you quote it should have been a capillary or venous hemangioma... Which means a collection of blood vessels. Its not harmful & usually is self limiting. Requires treatment only if it's increasing in size rapidly. Happy to help anytime. If you are happy with my reply, kindly rate it.
