UPDATE: Went to the doc. The doc will take it off on the 21st. She will send it in to make sure it isn't melanoma. She says that it is a "skin tag" or a palup. Also, the corner of the eye does not like to be messed with, and it may still have some redness after she removes the lump of skin. It will cost me suprisingly only $150 She said that she will take it off with "drops" Odd, I hope it don't hurt. Looks like being uninsured and unemployeed has biten me again. There is a pea sized ball of skin in the corner of my eye. It looks like the regular red skin in the corner of the eye has become detatched. It does not hurt, it has been there for 2 weeks now and is sortof disgusting to look at. I can stretch the out side corner of my eye to the outside and the lump of pink skin protudes past my eye lids. It is odd looking and I have no job to pay for a fix. I tried to mess with it but it does hurt when I do so. So cutting it off myself is not an option at this point. It is not a stey, or a skin tab. Like I said, it is directly in the inside corner of my eye and it looks like something became detatched. Any ideas on what it is? |

Don't touch it, don't do anything. If it gets really big, cut it off.

You KNOW the rules, man....pics or it doesn't exist.
And MS Paint will simply not do in this case. Seriously, sounds like BarryCare is in your future. |

Quoted: pics required If I get pics, will you all take up a medical fund for me? It can't cost more than $175 |

Go get it taken care of... you can pay the bill as you can.
No one in this country is denied medical care, just go get it done. Pay the bill in installments, at least you will pay your way. |

You have full blown aids!
but really you should get that checked out. The money isnt worth losing your eye. |
|
I had one of these of which you speak. I got mine removed with a lazer. Probably pretty expensive, but I was a kid and my parent's insurace pait for it.

I'd keep this thread bumped until one of our resident MDs chimes in..
I hope it's nothing dude, sorry to hear that you're dealing with it. |

IF anyone can shoot this thing off my eye it will take off my nose also. If someone can shoot it off with out taking off my nose I'll give you a million dollars. btw, attempted pics incomming. |

Quoted: I'd keep this thread bumped until one of our resident MDs chimes in.. I hope it's nothing dude, sorry to hear that you're dealing with it. it is creating lots of eye crust everytime I wake up. It can't be my tear duct. As I am sure the tear duct is in the lower eye lid. This thing is directly in the corner of my eye and not on any lid what so ever. |
|
The general rule of thumb is....when it is big enough to put a hat on it then you must take care of it.
Wasn't this a Twilight Zone episode? |

Quoted: IF anyone can shoot this thing off my eye it will take off my nose also. If someone can shoot it off with out taking off my nose I'll give you a million dollars. I can do it, but you probably wouldn't like the cranial ventilation that the shot angle would cause. |

Anyway, don't get worked up about it.. wait to see if one of the guys answers (keep it bumped), if no ones responds by tonight - IMHO I would call the Dr. and schedule an appointment tomorrow. It may cost money in the long term (I understand that you said you were unemployed and didn't have much money) but it's your eyesight that we are talking about. Good luck man, keep up posted. |

Sounds like a stye (sp?). A neighbor once jokingly told me that you get those watching a dog take a squat. Have you're porn habits changed lately.

Quoted: Human Bot Fly Larvae! Yup I agree, bot fly. Pretty common this time of year. You can have it removed or wait until it hatches. Here's a link http://www.snopes.com/horrors/insects/wormeye.asp |

Congrats! You're pregnant. It's a boy! First eye cavity pregnancy in history. Well see you on oprah.

Don't take a pic of it. That will only document this as a pre-existing condition, and you will be dropped from your insurance.

Quoted: kin tag? Get to a doctor now before the lines stat forming. suddle |

As others said. Call around and find a doc who will help you out and take payments.
|
|
Find a doc who will let you make payments, anything near or on your eye is serious business.
With that said, I must ask you to do a barrel roll. |
