Eyelid imposter

[mtbc]

Last fall, something grew on my eyelid, a swollen red area that, in time, turned out to contain something pale and hard. It is not much bother as it causes no pain. After experimenting with different approaches, I found that dabbing it with rubbing alcohol each morning made it disappear. The same area has now started to swell and redden so I guess that next month I shall dab it again. It hardly seems to be a severe condition so I am content to wait for widespread vaccination before seeking a doctor's advice.

It sounds like it might be a Chalazion or a Stye.

I hate eye issues. They make me crazy. I've developed a tendency to have skin tags on my eyelids. Harmless, but annoying as hell.
