Suggest Medication For Swelling And Hard Lump In The Right Upper Eye Lid

About six months ago, I woke-up to find my right upper eye lid swollen. I wasn't to concern with the swelling at the time because I assumed after a few days that it would go away. Months have now past (since first noticing the swelling on my eye lid) and the swelling has not gone away. There is now a hard lump in the same location. I am very concern. What shall I do? Please help!

Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.

I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that you are having a swelling and hard lump in the eye lid. This can be swelling involving the glands of the eyelids like chalazion.
This requires treatment by intralesional injection of steroids or by incision and curettage.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Hope this is helpful to you.
Thank you
