A member asked:
Woke up 4 days with a swollen and painful eyelid. i've had chalazia before, so i recognize this, but 4 days seems like a long time for swelling/pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Typical: This sounds typical of an acute hordeolum with diffuse eyelid swelling. If persists longer that a week, it can result in a chalazion. See an eye MD for evaluation and treatment if your hot compress/eye massage routine doesn't resolve your swelling and pain.
