Is this pink eye?

It sounds like a sty.

@Hawaii_Jake Oh – I bet you’re right!

Warm compresses, I think then. Right?

Yes

Yep, a compress as hot as you can stand.

Conjunctivitis involves the whole eye, not just the inside of the eyelid. And you’d have crusty detritus in the corner of your eye where stuff moves and dries out.

Good. I’m coming to Cali next weekend and don’t want to have anything contagious!

Yes. Stay away plague laden penguin.

Pink eye you will barely be able to open your eye in the morning. The lids will be practically stuck shut from the infection.

It sounds like a sty most likely. You’ll know in the AM.

It could be even something else of course, those aren’t the only two options.

I agree with @Hawaii_Jake, sounds like a sty. As @JLeslie says, if it’s pink eye you’d be pain and your eye would be red and sore and I’d expect there to be some discharge.

I wouldn’t call it pain, but some discomfort for sure.

Well, there is discomfort because it’s tender around that area but I do think it’s a sty from reading.

I’m pretty sure we used a salt water compress when I had a stye as a child. I haven’t had one in ages so my memory is fuzzy. Warm not hot.
