Answers: What causes the sty in my eye and how can i get rid of it? i keep getting them

A sty is an inflammation of one or more sebaceous glands of an eyelid and is usually caused by a bacterial infection. Make sure you wash your hands well if you are going to have your fingers in or around your eyes. For a cheap home remedy, you can try placing a warm, NOT hot teabag on the affected area. The tanic acid in the tea bag helps pull the infection from the sty. Usually, the cheaper the tea bag, the better, as the cheaper tea bags tend to have more tanic acid in them. Best of luck to you.

hold a warm wash cloth over it for a few minutes several times a day and after a day or two it's gone.
I would take a multi vitamen pill every day because your system is lacking something.

Well i got one once. I went to the doctor. He said do not pop it!!! It may cause an infection in your eye.

Don't touch it or rub your eye. Take a hot cloth and soak it. It SHOULD go away within a few days to a week, but if it doesn't or it gets more inflamed and redder and itchier, see a doctor IMEDIATELY. Most likely it won't, though, I had one and it went away quickly. Also don't wear contacts while you have one if you do have contacts.

okay, here is what you need to do. some people are more susceptible to sty's, like in your case because you keep getting them.

you can by eyelid wipes at your local store and basically it's like a "facial" for your eyelids, it helps to prevents backups therefore preventing sty's.

my sister (who often has this problem) swears that cutting a raw potato and putting it (the inside) on your closed eye helps get rid of it. but, that's my sister. i wouldn't know from personal experience. hope something works for ya!
