Why The Corner Of My Eye Is Red And Swollen?
Hi, my name is Ashlinn. I am a 19 year old female, 5 4.. 122 pounds. I woke up this morning with the inside corner of my right eye inflamed, burning, and irritated. Upon closer inspection, my eye seems a bit red and is extremely swollen. Now, I m guessing it might be the beginning of pink eye but since it hasn t fully developed, I m trying to determine whether to go to work or take the day off to see a doctor. I work as a canvasser for GreenPeace so I m in close contact with people all day long. THANKS!

It appears to be angular conjunctivitis which is allergic in nature. Take levocetrizine 5mg tablet daily. Cromal eye drop may be applied 3times daily. If it is allergic in nature then itwill improve.
