Answer 1

You need to ask your mom to take you to the docter, that can be serious, especially if you don’t know what it was. They will know what to do. :] And I hope you get better soon. Maybe try looking it up online?..

Answer 2

First, BITE IT BACK!!! That'll teach it a lesson!

Second, my sister tells me that lots of guys do that,
and it really "bugs" her, so I empathize, completely!

Third, if your eyelid is "puffy",
that means you now have the start of a new "rapper" name.
How 'bout, "Puffy Buggy One-Eye"?

Fourth, if it hurts every time you blink, DON'T BLINK!

Fifth, you don't have insurance???
Send an angry letter to the current administration!

Okay, all kidding aside, first, you need to get off your computer, and wash your entire hands and face in warm soapy water. Apply, but do NOT rub the soapy water on your eyelid. Next, dry your hands and face, leaving a little bit of moisture on the eye. Then, go to the icebox, and put some ice in a plastic, zip-style bag, or other watertight container, along with a little bit of water, and GENTLY apply it to the affected eye (if your eye starts to "burn" from the coldness, just remove the back for a few moments, then put it back on).

If the swelling doesn't go down in a couple of days, then, you have no choice but to go to a doctor's office or emergency room; no amount of money is worth potentially permanent disfigurement and/or blindness.

Unfortunately, you didn't tell us where you live, so we don't know if there are any indigenous, poisonous bugs or insects to be concerned about. Since you referred to it as "something", that implies it was really small, and probably not a bee or a spider, so it probably is nothing to worry about (i.e., gnat bite or similar). However, it is possible that the teeny bug is still on or in your eye, and that might be causing the irritation. You may need help in finding and removing it (a magnifying glass and bright light would help).

P.S. It isn't necessary to CaPiTaLiZe EVERYthing. You clearly weren't in that much pain, or you wouldn't have taken the time to type on the computer. So, whether you're faking or not, don't over-dramatize by typing all capital letters. Man, that really bugs me! ;)

Answer 3

put ice on it immediately, as soon as possible. then mix baking soda with a little bit of water so it becomes a paste, then glop it on the effected area, it should go away. If it doesnt, then you have to get insurance and go to the doctor. If you are allergic, then you need an epi-pen. That is a shot you give yourself after you get stung. Be careful! Good luck in life hon! ☺

Answer 4

Ouch! Do you wear contacts? It doesn't necessarily mean that it could have been a bug. Sometimes people get the little "balls" on their eye/eye lids from there contacts being dry. If you have contacts then, no need to worry and place ice on your eye and don't wear your contacts on until your swollen leaves. If you don't wear contacts try washing your eye and putting ice on it. Good luck!

Answer 5

For one thing, make sure you don't rub it or scratch it since that will irritate it even more. Maybe some aspirin for the pain.

But if you live in an area where there are poisonous insects I suggest that you go see a doctor. Spending $50 on a doctor visit is better than losing your eyesight... or even worse.

Hope you feel better soon!

Answer 6

ouch I would go to the doctor anyway they will usually cut you a break if you do not have insurance. Try taking some benedryl to help with the allerigic reaction you are having and then put some ice on your eye.

I thumbs down angeline because what she suggested was fraud.

Answer 7

You may be having an allergic reaction. Try taking some benedryl and put some ice on it. If you have any other symptoms, you'll have to suck it up and go to the emergency room. You can pay them back in installments.

Answer 8

Even if u don't have insurance, you should go to the Board of Health or your county hospital...your complaint sounds serious and most hospitals have a certain amount of people that they have to treat (who do not have insurance).

Answer 9

omg this happend to my brother. he just woke up after a sleepover with his friend and his friend was like "woah dude!!!!" we all guessed it was a spider bite. my brother found the spider on the pillow and it goes away in 2 or 3 days i think he took some aspirin though to help the pain but that's all i know.

Answer 10

Ok well,
This is OK its just a spider bite, I had this before, just put some ice on it and it will go away within a day or so.

Feel Better!
