Health question???? Please answer?!


Question: Health question???? Please answer?
So, I just looked in the mirror, and I have a stye on my eyelid:( how do I get rid of it/make it not hurt?? Any suggestion helps.

Thanks;)

Answers:

Styes can be treated by applying warm compresses. Apply for 10 minutes. Do this four times a day.

Do NOT attempt to squeeze a stye or any other type of eyelid bump. Let it drain on its own.

Antibiotic creams may help recurrent or persistent styes. Some large styes need to be lanced to drain the infection.

Be careful when lancing a stye however. You have to make sure the item you are using to lance the stye is sterilized either by hydrogen peroxide or by heating it then dipping it in a clean cup of water to cool it. DO NOT try to lance it yourself! Have someone else do this for you

My grandma always had me put a warm wet washrag on it and keep it on for a while. Keep it warm.
