I Have A Very Large Blood Blister From My Eye, Its About 2,5" Long And About 1.5" Wide. It Is Very Swollen. Would It Be Safe To Pop It With A Needle To Let All The Blood Out.

It looks like I have gone ten rounds with Mohammed Ali.

What do you mean by ‘from my eye’. Is it on your cheek? I can’t imagine something that big coming from your eye. Don’t start poking it with needles!

How did it happen. Is it a blood blister or just a red swollen area. Don't try to pop it. Hopefully Sqad is around. I have no medical qualifications. But that, if its a blood blister, is huge in my opinion.

If this website is anything to go by, your problem doesn't look like a blood blister:

Why do you always put medical problems in CB?
1.5 inches by 2.5 inches means it is not coming from the eye.
It is a suborbital haematoma (black eye..shiner)
Leave well alone take Ibuprofen for the pain, if any and it should settle within a week.

No big deal.

id go to A&E, you should only get a hematoma like that with black eye from a collision with something you dont say.do not pop it
if it is from so accident of sorts just leave it maybe cold compress it with go down in time,

No
try to see a doctor
eye doctor even - worth travelling

VERY unlikely to recommend popping which they wd do on site (!, pun intended)- The danger of infection in the remaining blood in your eye tissue is too great.

yeah she looks like Charles Laughton as Quasimodo in the hunchback of Notre Dame

[roopower]

Don't go breaking the skin, you're asking to get an infection in it.

[Peter Pedant]

yeah the last thing you want is an orbital infection

last thing - pun, geddit?
