What Makes My Eyelid Hurt Near My Lashline?

My left eyelid hurts a lot, especially near the lashline and towards the outer part of lashline. It is barely swollen and the skin is not red or pink. Pain started yesterday and is worse today. I don't have any allergies that I know of. What could be causing this?

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having pain in the eye lid near the lashline.
This indicates inflammatory lesion involving the glands of the eye lids or acute blepharitis.
The treatment is by the use of antibiotics and use of hot compression applied to the eye lid margin.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for confirmation of diagnosis and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
