warm, warm, warm. As many times a day as humanly possible!
We treat many, many of these a day, and HEAT is the best treatment.
warm compresses.
you might want to try practicing lid hygiene by gently scrubbing your lid margins with a baby shampoo or something to prevent later.
A chalazion is a cyst and not an infection, so antibiotics do nothing. Warm packs are the treatment and, if it doesn't go away, the surgery is not too bad and can be done in the office.
