Likely: This is most likely a stye in its early stages. You can try to apply very warm (not hot) wet washcloths over the closed lid for 4 minutes at a time; 5 times per day. This will get rid of most styes of this type. If the symptoms persist after 5 days of this treatment, then see your ophthalmologist.
