Suggest Treatment For Lump On Eyelid

Hi
I have a big lump on my eyelid, right below the eyebrow. It is red, has no opening and it feels like a hard ball under the skin. It is more on the outer side of the eyelid and has gotten very noticable.
It all started one or two months ago when I walked into a wall( hahah..).
I got a little wound on the upper eyelid and I started plucking it, couldnt leave it alone:/.
Then I noticed a little "ball like pimple" under my skin. It was not red or anything. I have put some hot compress on it but it wont really help.
It has grown and now it is really red and looks swollen.
I am going to see the doctor soon but I have a big event coming up and I cant wait for my appointment!!
What can I do?

Hi.
Looking to the history it seems that following injury on the part there might be having some hematoma and now there might be developing some infection producing lump.
Apply ice pack 2-3 times a day for few days.
If pain or swelling increases, collected blood or exudate should be drained to get relief.
Ok and take care.
