I Am In Pain!!!!help!!
 

I don't know what to do i woke up today and my eye was swollen at first i thought mabey it was a sty but it is so painful and i can't see anything. it's the inside of the eye and the swelling is putting pressure on my eye which is giving me a migraine. i don't know what to do. i have tried a heat pack abd an ice pack neither seem to be helping does anyone have any suggestions? i been trying to sew all day but it's very hard to do with one eye and a migraine:(

If it's inside the eye, I'd get to a doctor. I had something like that when I was twelve, and every time I blinked it tore my cornea a bit. Needed to wear an eyepatch for awhile.

I'd have it checked out. It could also just be a cold in the eye (seen children with that, they swell up big and quick) which would NOT require a patch.

Either way, don't mess with your vision. find out. JMO

It could also be pink eye, which is contagious.

Thanks guys. It's not pink eye cause i have had that before. But this is weird jusy my eyelid is swollen but the pressure is killing me i know i need to go in but i feel dumb i might just wait till tomarrow to see if it goes away:(

Amber ...so sorry to hear about your eye ...it sounds painful.....every time I wake up w/ a swollen red mark it always bring back memories of this article I read about spiders crawling on us at night...it saids we all eat about 6-8 spiders in our life time while asleep:eek:

Oh my, I was just getting ready to say the same thing..a spider mite. Sometimes they are just so small you can hardly see them and they get in the bed. Amber you really need to get it checked out. You could also have a torn cornea. You should never wait when it comes to your vision.

I see she logged off awhile ago. I hope she went to get it checked out!

I hope so too. I would never want to lose my vision or hearing.

sorry guys my headache was getting worse so i nt to lay down. Well my eye is worse as far as swelling but my headache is gone.it's just my eyelid that is swollen but if it is not better in the morning i will go in. Thanks eveyonr for your support i might take a pic later you gals seriously need to see it i look like quazy-moto lol:eek:

Well, glad your back and that your headache is gone. When I worked in daycare, we did have a little one who's eyelid swelled in a matter of hours...it was the weirdest thing. I believe the Dr. said that his cold had moved into his eye? Could be what your experiencing.

Sounds incredibly uncomfortable.:( :( :(

I hope the swelling goes down soon! Keep us posted, thinking of you.

I haven't had a cold this is so bizzar!:eek: :( if it swells shut tonight i might gbo to emergency but it's so hard because i don't have $100.00 for the co pay so thats why i wanted to wait but the pain from the swelling is immence!

Yikes. Insurance really doesn't work the way it should! Have you tried an anti-inflammatory?

here are a few pics sorry i look awful!!

i'm sending hubby to the store for some.
