near my tear duct and it really itches what is it?


Answers:

A sty is caused when bacteria gets trapped inside the tear duct or in an eyelash follicle. For the most part, they are harmless, but do not touch it or itch your eye to limit the spread of germs. Try to gently clean the area with a q-tip and warm water to help clear the sty. You can also apply a warm compress to your eye to help speed up to healing process. Do not wear any eye makeup.

The help prevent stys, remember to wash your hands before rubbing you eye or before any other contact. Also make sure to throw away make-up that is older than 6 months to avoid bacteria spreading into your eye.
