    God! Mine had the hard bump kind last summer. You can put vetrx or something similar on it to see if that will help but it will take a while to run its course. You have to make sure the eye does not seal shut as that will cause it to go blind. Also you may have to hand feed and water them as they seem to lose interest in eating and drinking. Bless those poor little babies.
