Fell asleep for a bit, but have a GP appt tomorrow morning. I'm trying not to get overly anxious about this, because it's probably nothing, but its such a different pain than I am used to.

Like, sharp, and then achey, and sharp if I rub my eyes (which I do without thinking). I have no idea what I could have done to it, like it's a weird spot. Just under my right eye, where the orbital hole ends, on my cheekbone. I know I keep posting, but I'm anxious ugh!!!!

You're seeing a doctor. In the meantime don't touch and use warm compresses for comfort.

So many hugs

Maybe it's a pimple on the inside of your eyelid or something? Or a subcutaneous ingrown hair or some such

Maybe? Theres nothing on the skin, no marks, no bruise or discolouration. No lump I can feel underneath, just the top of my cheekbone/orbital.

Hopefully it is just a stupid zit. I can deal with that.

no lump is a good sign, rules out a lot of shit. Could be a minute scratch, the area under your eyes is ridiculously tender

Could be a stye, it seems to be the season.

Could be nerve pain, maybe even referred from TMJ or a tooth? Best of luck, hope you can get checked soon

I do grind my teeth, I'm stressed it's a fracture. It's probably nothing though lol
