Author  Topic    MinnieMinno United Kingdom 2 Posts Posted - 02/28/2018 :  09:41:50     I'm really grateful to have found this site and forum with so much useful, detailed information. I have a small BCC on lower left eyelid, rather close to the tear duct. Currently, I'm treating it with Cymilium, orange oil, eggplant/apple cider vinegar and frankincense and it does seem to be shrinking. As it's so close to the eye and tear duct, I can only apply very small amounts without getting a strong reaction from the eye. Question: Is it a good idea to keep the lesion covered with a small bandaid all the time? I note when it's covered, it tends to weep. Any ideas would be appreciated.
