Eyelid swollen, red since yesterday

2026-07-20 08:12:19
My eyelid started to itch after sweat mixed with mascara and I stepped into cold environment and while I rremoved after noticing swelling. I had been having allergies on and off after visiting bangalore recently where skin in eye regions and lower lip had become dry and flaky and was using chlorocol-h prescribed one month back for similar issue but this time its more redness and swelling. I had applied chlorocol h yesterday before sleeping and though redness reduced but its still swollen. Ice pack is helping but it goes back to normal. The corners were itching more due to running residue causing irritation even after removing with wetted tissue. After returning I washed area thoroughly providing more relief before applying thin layer of aloe and castor oil for dryness followed by medication chlorocol h. What can I do to address the issue or is antibiotic required or cold compress enough. I am concerned about the redness.No vision issues observed this time and lip issue has some weeping

This is contact/allergic dermatitis from the mascara-sweat combination. Stop all eye cosmetics for now. Don't apply castor oil or aloe near the eye — can worsen it. Continue Chlorocol-H thin layer at night, and add cetirizine 10mg once daily for the allergic component. Cold compress for relief. If swelling doesn't come down in 2 days, see an ophthalmologist in person.
