Need to have it seen: by an eye doctor, who can view it under the slit lamp. You may have a drainage issue, or it may be tender, because it's inflamed, especially if there's a minor blockage (dacryolith), or from infection (dacryocystitis), or if it's not draining properly. This can all be done and evaluated by an eye doctor very easily. Best to have it checked out, and get to the bottom of it! May be something simple.
