What is this?
This has been under the skin of my eyelid for upwards of a decade. I’ve always thought it was a milia so never to remove it and couldn’t afford to go and get it removed either. Today, I’d finally had enough of having this horrible yellow lump on one of my eyes. So I sterilised a sewing needle, disinfected my hands, put some gloves on, and I poked the goddamn thing. I expected a hard ball to come out as would happen with a milia, and instead, a yellow liquid came out. Not infected because it’s been there for probably at least 10 years and it’s never grown or hurt at all. It’s never bothered me except in terms of appearance. What the heck was it?
