Accepted Answer

See doctor: Good idea for you to see doctor. MY wish to have this removed. Get checked out

Question 2

hello, i have had my left eye watering constantly for perhaps a week now, and wiping away tears/discharge has now irritated the skin around my eye. also, it has been painful to press on the inside corner of my eye for quite a few weeks, and i am unsure if this is related. i thought this could be allergies as my head does feel stuffy intermittently, but my new red eye socket (not the eye itself) has motivated me to ask.

thanks,

logan

left eye watering?

Accepted Answer

: You have an obstructed and possibly infected tear drainage system (dacryocystitis). The tears drain via tiny openings at the inside corner of each lid into a sac under the skin at the inside corner and then into the nasal cavity. You might feel a nodule when you press the inside corner. This has to be treated often with oral antibiotics along with eye drops, and sometimes a minor procedure.

Question 3

left eye painfully and red, hard to open, painfully when opening, pain along side of head?

Accepted Answer

Red eye: Have a local health care worker look at your eye. If having a problem seeing go to ER.

Question 4

yesterday i woke up and my left eye was burning, red and irritated. by the end of the day the pain left my eye but i started having an intense headache. the next motioning i had a throbbing headache on the left side of my head. is this serious???

Accepted Answer

: The best way to figure this out is to get an exam by an Ophthalmologist.

Question 5

left side of head occasional fullness and pressure, left ear is clogged, and my left eye has several dark red squiggly lines in the white part of the eye. my left eye feels strained occasionally a sharp pain that lasts several seconds behind that eye?

Accepted Answer

: Sounds most consistent with sinus issues---fullness and pressure. The sinuses surround rhe orbit so "eye pain" is frequent. The red squiggly lines are subconjunctival blood vessels. An evaluation with an ENT with imaging that includes the sinuses and orbit (to rule out orbital pathology) is a good idea.

Question 6

for 1 year swelling, very red and very  watery eyes with stabbing pain in left eye, sweating and skin flaking on face and scalp, low grade fever. ?

Accepted Answer

You need: You need to see an ophthalmologist for your eye and a dermatologist for your skin. You probably have rosacea and seborrheic dermatitis. Your eye problem is most important because you could lose your eye sight.

Question 7

i have a small red spot, left side of penis head/crown. it seems to get better when i put neosporin on it. could it simply be an abrasion or an std?

Accepted Answer

Tough to say: Without an exam and testing, it is really impossible to say, but the fact that it improves with antibiotic meds is encouraging for an abrasion like wound.  Get checked for the definitive answer.

Question 8

i have a small red spot (1-2mm) near the head of my penis that is painless. redness seems to vary time to time. is this a possible symptom of std?

Accepted Answer

No way to know: Without being able to visualize this and obtain further history any comment would be nothing but a guess. You need to show this to a doctor and be diagnosed and treated appropriately.

Question 9

my son bumped his head on edge of table. hit behind right ear noticed red spot on right eye  2 hours later.  is a ct necessary ?

Accepted Answer

No CT necessary: As long as he is asymptomatic and the red spot is in the white of the eye it shouldn't  be aproblem. The red spot in his eye is probably blood from a broken smal blood vessel in the eye and should clear up on its own.

Question 10

my 5 month old son has a red mark on a back of his head. what is it and how is it trea?

Accepted Answer

May be birthmark: There are some "birthmarks" that emerge in the first few months on the skin surface.A common one is composed of a collection of dilated capillaries that appear at the nape of the neck. It is commonly called a storks kiss. It may fade some later or persist through life. His doc can confirm this. It has no health significance.
