> It might be a sty (I don't think I spelled that right). I've gotten them before. Scientifically, I have no idea what a sty is, but it feels like a very angry pimple on the inside of my eyelid. If it's a sty, it should go away. But yes, they do hurt. I try soak it with a warm, wet washcloth. I don't know if that actually does any good, but it does seem to soothe it. Hope it goes away soon.

Thanks, and my parents have now tried to "help" me by informing me that I probably touched some germs (is it possible NOT to touch any germs at all?) and then touched my eye, infecting it. Then they go on to say it'll get worse and will never get better. Gee, thanks, parents-who-are-supposed-to-make-me-feel-better. Anyway, I'm afraid that my eye might swell up some more. I have a debate tourney, then a piano test by the end of this week, and it wouldn't be good for my eye to swell shut or anything. And I'm not sure it's a sty, since I don't know how a big pimple on the inside of my lid would feel like. I don't think it's what I have though. More like just it's swollen with some fluid...Every time I blink it hurts. Considering how much people (including me, of course) blink, it hurts way too much... ::sigh::
