A member asked:

Inner corner top eyelid is red and swollen. is causing eye to look smaller and more closed than the other.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

You may have: a stye or hordeolum. A stye is a cyst-like thing that is fluid filled and completely benign. Warm compresses on top of the eyelid usually will bring it down in 1-2 days, though if it gets infected, you will need antibiotic eyedrops or pills. Get yourself to a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment. Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.
