Stye

I have a stye on the inside of my lower lid. Is there anything that I can put it on it to make it go away quicker??? I've had it since Friday.
TIA

PS- This is the first stye I have ever had so anything you can tell me will be helpful.

Re: Stye

hot compresses.
soak a papertowel or towl w/ as hot water as you can stand it (don't burn yourself) and put it over your eye.
do it on and off for about 20 mins several times per day.

feel better!

No I don't. Chat Icon I have been told that it is a stye. I made an appointment with my doctor tommorrow to double check.

Thank you.

I put a hot wet tea bag on them which really seems to help.
