I have had consistent bleeding from my right eyelid. It started about 3 hours after surgery and has been dripping blood for about 22 hours. Saw the doctor this am. He said it will stop, but he said that yesterday. I have had a pressure bandage on it which bleeds through about every 2 hours. What can I do to stop the bleeding? I have no pain or other issues, just bleeding.
