I have this bump on my upper corner of my eyelid. is that a stye?

Question:

are you able to get a stye inside of your upper eyelid corner?
Answers:
Yes you can get them there. That's where I got them sometimes. Is is swollen?

I remember mine was swollen(which caused it to be painful, red, and warm to the touch) and I think there was a little pus.

There's medicine you can get(I think over the counter), but you can also put a hot rag on your eye.

*I don't know if youd want to use toilet paper like the person below me said. You'll end up getting it in your eye possibly and irritating it. Use the rag to do what she said*

Other Answers:
If it hurts and your eye doesn't look normal, then yeah, that's probably it. The best thing to do, and I know this sounds gross, is to pull your eyelid away from your eye, and take a piece of toilet paper and kinda brush it over the infected part of the lid. That will hopefully break the head and you can heal alot faster.

*The reason you use toliet paper or a kleenex is because it would be hard to pull your lid far enough from your eye that you could fit a rag in there. You might want to go with a kleenex though, it is a little stronger, however don't get the kind that have any kind of lotion or anything on them, that might irritate your eye.*

A stye usually found on the inside of the eyelid corner. The bump is usually only in one eye,red,swollen and painful but the vision is still ok.If this is what you get, compress the affected eye with warm compress 4x/day and give antibiotic eye ointment
