What Can I Do To Treat Painful Bump On The Bottom Of My Left Eye Inspite Of Tattooing?
I got my eyeliner tattooed 9 days ago and now i have a somewhat painful bump on the bottom of my left eye. Is it a stye? What can I do to treat it? I am currently still putting Aquaphor ointment on my eyes until this Friday when my tattoos should be healed by then.

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having painful bump on the lower eye lid.
It is most commonly inflammation of glands of the eyelids and it can be either hordeolum internum or externum.
The treatment is by using antibiotic eye ointment and oral antiinflammatory drugs. Applying hot compression to the swollen area provides symptomatic relief.
Thank you
