Asked By:andygmu in Miami, FL

I had a chalazion on my upper eyelid and about 8 weeks ago I went to the ophthalmologist. He use a cortisone injection to remove my chalazion. I've had a little bump ever since. Will this go away with time or should I do some kind of plastic surgery to remove this bump?? Please help me. I am a bit worried
