If you are 40 you need a complete eye exam. you can try warm compresses. Yes you can get skin cancer on the eyelid.

Thank you, doctor. Is there anything I can be doing at home? How do I do a warm compress without irritating the eye?
It looks like the problem itself began on the very edge of the rim and now some sort of "stuff" is trapped just under the membrane on the inside of the lid.
I am a real worrier, especially since it has not going away by itself. Is it possible to get a skin cancer on the rim/inside of you eyelid? (I am 40 and always wear sunglasses outdoors.)
Yes. Have it checked out by an eye md
