This bulge is a chalazion and will possibly not go away without a surgical removal since it’s persistent for 3 months. However, it is not an emergency and will do no harm even if you wait till you are comfortable to take him to a specialist. In the mean while do hot fomentation 3 times a day and you can use eye drops tobramycin incase of redness or discharge.
Next Steps
Consult ophthalmologist when possible
