What Causes Dryness And Purple In Eyelids With A Bump?
My eyelids are dry and purple, mostly in the crease of the eyelid. There is also a small bump there. It has spread from one eye to the other and the area of dryness and purple color has gotten bigger over the past month. It doesn t hurt or sting at all, it rarely itchess. I tried washing it and that didn t help. Could it be a fungal infection? or seborrheic dermatitis?
