Question : Posted the other day about getting rancid raw pork meat in my eye and ive been having headaches im scared i have something someone please help me
Brief Answer:
Pterygieum
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
Sometimes due to chronic inflammation in the eye one can get a inflammatory fold of the tissue which is called Pterygium. It may not cause any problem to the vision unless it encroaches the cornea.
But a visit to the opthalmologist is recommended.
