Question 1

left upper eyelid is heavy n sore.started with twitching n now is paining. have mild sore throat as well.are they related? what's the actual reason?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: When you start having pain in the eye with no apparent reason you most likely developing conjunctivitis and you need to have a Rx for special eye drops or eye ointment eye is a very special organ only drops and ointment are made for the eyes are allowed to be used they do required prescription it could be as a result of other infection in your body your doctor will evaluate and treat good luck

Question 2

pink swollen eyelid, sore throat/cold. dr said stye, but there is no bump at all! just an overall swelling/pain. incorrect diagnosis perhaps?

Accepted Answer

Probably right: Most styes start out with diffuse swelling of a part or sometimes the whole lid.  As your body starts to deal with it, it becomes localized to the more typical focal redness and swelling. I hope you were told to apply heat 4-5 times per day which is in face the best treatment.

Question 3

sore swollen eyelids and a sore throat, what can cause them?

Accepted Answer

Viral infection: The combination of sore throat and swelling with irritation in the eyes is highly suggestive of a viral infection (pharyngitis plus conjunctivitis) for which there is no known treatment that will cure it. Standard advice is to stay well hydrated (drink plenty of fluids), take Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen for the pain, and apply hot/wet compresses to your eyes. Then just add  a tincture of time.

sore throat, cold and now one swollen, slightly pink, painful eyelid. hurts when i blink. not pink on inside. hoping its not alrgc reaction. thoughts?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: Although this is not likely to be something serious without seeing it there is no way in which to be sure. Since your vision is so precious there is no reason to risk further damage.  Go and have a professional examine you.  Good luck.

Question 7

yesterday my eye hurt & i had a sore throat, a ringing in my lt ear and a headache. today i have a pus spot inside of my lt eyelid. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: Without seeing your eye, I can't be sure, but it sounds like infectious conjunctivitis. the other possiblity, which would be more worrisome is a periorbital skin infection, possibly sinusitis and a middle ear infection. It makes sense to see a doctor at urgent care for an exam. Infections in and around the eye can be very serious, since the eye is so close to the brain. Anitbiotics probably needed

Question 8
