I have a growth below my left lower eyelid, near my tear duct. i thought it was a skin tag at first but it's getting bigger. what should i do?

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining you. If the "growth" has doubled in size since you first noticed it, it would be time to see a doctor to ascertain if removal is warranted. Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
