So it hurts when I blink and yeah I just asked my mom to get me an eye appointment because yeah it’s been hurting for a week now. I did look into it and found that eye pain can be a symptom that only comes later on and at the start it can have no symptoms. I did also noticed there was a lump like by my nose. So yeah I’m wondering if this could mean anything.

    It could be just a stye. Basically a pimple on the edge of your eyelid. But if you’re worried, should probably see a doctor (if you can)

    Just wait for your eye appointment. Looking up symptoms online always gives worst-case scenario results. Don’t worry about anything you see online unless your doctor tells you to.

    There are a lot of much less severe things it could be. There’s really no reason to suppose it’s cancer based on just what you’ve said.

    It sounds like a doctor’s appointment is a good idea if only because it’s been causing you discomfort for a while, but don’t let yourself worry about it if you can help it. It’s really really not panic-worthy right at this point.
