What Does A Pimple Near The Tear Duct Indicate?

Hi , I have a small skin coloured pimple near my tear duct .. it kinda looks like a sty ! It s not sore or red or anything but just wondering what it could be ? It s very small but I have one on my other eye too .. they have been there for quite a while now .. but never changed in size or anything ! Is there a way of getting rid of them ?

Hello,

It can be a chalazion or lacrimal duct swelling. A pimple or acne is very unlikely. Consult an ophthalmologist and get it removed.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
