Why is my dog's eyelid swollen, but he's acting completely normal?

Question

Dogs eyelid is swollen on top. He’s acting fine and wanting to play like normal. And he isn’t rubbing at it or anything. Just looks bad. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 3 years and 9 months old

Hello. This could be some type of allergic reaction. Apply a warm compress to the area twice a day for 10-15 minutes at a time. You will need to keep the water quite warm, but not uncomfortable. If the swelling does not go down by tomorrow, please make an appointment to see your veterinarian on Monday. Hopefully, the swelling will resolve by then.
