    My 9 months old baby girl has a mini lump on her left upper eye lid. Her pediatrician said is something call chalazion and it will go away itself eventually. 
    Any moms out there experience this before? Any suggestions what to do? HOw long did your baby's lump lasted.

    Thanks do much.

    Hi my daughter had something similar to this and when i looked it up online i found different massages you can do the same as a blocked tearduct.  By rubbing the edges of the nose etc it is supposed to help relieve the pressure of it or something, i also put warm wash clothes on it, as much as a wiggly baby will allow.  Also i believe you can use the polysporin eye drops, dont take my word on that one though as i am not positive as that was not something i used for that, but my daughter got sick from another child and ended up with gunky eyes as she got older this winter and i had to use those eye drops for that.  I hope it goe's away quickly.  jasmine
