Eye and eyelid irritation and swelling
I have an issue with my left eye. It keeps tearing, a little bit of moisture keeps coming out of the outside corner constantly, irritating my skin there. My eyelid also feels irritated, puffy, and red. It is probably some sort of allergy, I have had it before and eventually it goes away but it is very bothersome. I don't have any other symptom like runny nose, just the left eye. I have chronic eczema but right now it is clear. When I had this eye irritation happen before, eventually my whole eye area gets covered in eczema like rash and stays swollen and red, mainly the eyelids, both upper and lower. They also sometimes burn. I bought Euphrasia 30c today, would that be ok to try? Could it help relieve some discomfort and swelling? Thank you!kalex on 2014-09-13
This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
You may take Euphrasia 30 twice a day for 3 days and see how that affects over 7-10 days.
If that doesn't work you may take Sulphur 30 in the same way.

Thank you so much for the advice!
There is some definite improvement but it is still not gone. I was wondering if I should take more or stop since there was an improvement. I am unsure of this part of homeopathy, stop taking it when there is any improvement since that means the remedy is working and the cure has been initiated and still going on, or keep taking even if improving till all symptoms are gone, esp in lower potency like 30c.
My other question was how to take it. I keep reading about wet dose being better than dry, and the need to succuss after each dose. So the first night I took it I took it dry. The next day I dissolved a few pellets in a little water and took a sip (I think I did it 3 times a day since I wasn't sure if the smaller dose means a little more frequent dosing). Each time I took it I hit the bottle 10 times. Now this morning I made a fresh batch because I heard I am not supposed to keep remedies in water overnight. I again succussed it 10 times, but since it's a new batch that means I was back to where I began yesterday morning as far as potency, right? So this was my last dose this morning and since it has been 2 days (1 night, 1 full day and this morning) I am unsure if I should stop or continue.
Thank you!!
Also, this is part of a larger problem, as I have been struggling with eczema for a long time, so maybe a more constitutional remedy would work better in the long run. Would appreciate if anyone could recommend one, I can provide details of my case. Thanks!
