Hello
It seems from the history that you are having swollen eye with a lump in the corner of the eyelid. This indicates inflammation of gland of the eyelids. The treatment is by use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs. Applying hot compression provides symptomatic relief.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
