Should I Be Concerned For The Swelling In The Crease Of My Upper Lid?

I just notice my upper eyelid was swollen so I went and looked in the mirror. It looks like the size of a dime swollen in the crease of my upper eyelid. It doesn't hurt at all but I'm nervous to touch it. It's like when you get a TB test the fluid under the skin. It's making me very nervous since it's on my eye. Please help!
