my stye appeared last friday and i tried many remedies like the tea bag thing and applying hot compresses. it is now currently wednsday and my lower eyelid is swelled up like hell and my upper eyelid is starting to swell up to! imagine a big eyebag filled with pus and is very red! my eyes are also red because of irritation and im tearing all day long! went to the dr yesterday and she gave me antibiotic capsules and adviced me to continue appying hot compresses. but i think the hot compress is t
I have a stye at the moment and I have had it since Christmas (i still have it) but i had 2 styes. one closer to my eyeball and the other closer to my tear duct, it didnt reach it though. i tried heat, didnt work and ended up going to the doctors. I have been given antebiotic tablets and antibiotic ointment for it but it still isnt going away and its been there for a really long time.
It went away within three days. Going through this, I learned that getting rid of a stye requires constant application of the hot compress; don’t just apply the hot compress once or twice a day and expect the stye to go away, follow through with the application of the hot compress. I decided to share my experience since it might help some of you with multiple styes decide to visit your doctor or not. In my case, visiting a physician proved more than worthwhile! Stay stye free! Good luck!
Even though I tried the hot compress for this one, it wouldn’t go away, so I decided to visit my doctor. She said she wouldn’t give me anything for it; I simply had to keep doing what I had done with the previous styes. I did, but the stye was increasing in size, so I decided to go see another doctor. I was immediately given antibiotics to treat it.
I had my first stye about two months ago. Fortunately, I was able to get rid of it in about a week and a half with the hot compress technique outlined here. Soon after, however, I got another stye, but I still refrained from going to see the doctor, simply because I thought this stye was no different than the one before. I did the hot compress for about a week again; the stye disappeared. Unfortunately, I got a third stye about three weeks ago.
I had a stye before and it got bigger and bigger so i used my own hands i popped it. i thought it would completely go away but after poopping it i still have a mark on my eyes. i feel so insecure about my looks. Can somebody please help me what should i do to get rid of the mark in my eyes. i would rally appreciate it.
@ajaytulachan1 you should exfoliate the skin with some sort of gentle material, you could also try some sort of peel that would be safe to use by the eye, or some sort of skin lightener that's safe to use by the eye. I really don't know what to say but I feel your pain I have a scar that makes me self conscious but before doing any of those you should really try to consult a dermatologist they could really help good luck!
i have had this sty for like 3 weeks and i just started using eye liner about the time the sty appeared (( i am 13 )) so i stopped using it and its getting bigger so i hope this helps!
I had one and within 3 days it was so bad my eye was swollen shut and almost the whole side of my face was swollen too it hurt to touch or even sleep. on 5th day after 2 days of antibiotics and warm compress they had to cut it open to drain it. My eye will be forever be deformed now and have to have reconstructive surgery. Please everyone keep your ducks clean! Don't let this happen to you!
Chery youre not the only one some of the styes that I've had last for months but they suck. The first time I got one was about 10 years ago, im 24 and I was a teen back then and would get upset because they are ugly. I guess we just have to learn to live with em.
In a way its goid to hear that im not the only one who gets them all the time. Right now I have one in each eye. They hurt really bad but what helps me is baby shampoo and the wet hot cloth. It stops it from getting any bigger.
I have a huge bump on the middle if my eyelid and I don't know if it's a sty because it doesn't hurt or anything it just feels puffy and my mom said it might be a mosquito bite cuz there was a ton around us but it doesn't itch or anything so idk I'm scared
I have tried everything 3 different doctors and was even given eye drops and I still have them. I have had them for about 6 months. They are horrible and painful and UGLY. I can't even wear makeup. I tried the compress and it did nothing. I am convinced they are never going away. I don't even know what caused them in the first place. :-/
@Cherylyiyi you might have to get it lanced, try a hot tea bag if you havent that made mine come to a head & i get them all the time >:O & also change your makeup because that can cause an infection and you want to make sure it is clean so it will reduce the chance of getting infected again.
Ive gotten styes once a year for the last three years, i usually used a hot compress 2-5 times a day but it takes 2-4 months for mine to go away. is this normal?
@scarface7117 i have them all the time as well with them lasting ages.. some people say its from picking your nose and the bacteria there but i dont even touch my nose and get them.. im really looking for someone to tell me why i get them and whats the cause? rather than remedys to get rid of them
@HeidiPie88 styes, from what i have found out, when on the outside (lashline area), is caused from things like an infected eyelash folicle, or just build up of bacteria. all they really are are little bacterial infections. i get them seldomly inside of my eyelid, so if you get them there or on the outside, its probably just infection in a little eye pore or hair folicle. being a girl, ive found out using mascara alot causes me to get them (probably because of bacteria buildup on the brush).
@ danijel303 really pls dnt recommend if it's gona cause u a fees...I might as well go c my dr...pay $15 copayment and few bucks for my anti...no offense...
it`s my first time to have an stye! snce yesterday my eye has a little stye on it i didn`t know that it was a stye i just thught it was bitten by a mosquito but i was wrong >< today i went to a doctor and he said that it was a stye i`m freaking out !! coz` he said to me that he may cut my stye in eye

i have a stye too .. and its the most embarrassing thing possible! i hate it, but there's surgery that takes about 15 minutes and then its gone... its a tiny bit painful but then its gone! :) i would also like to know how to prevent one..
@xiMaFiiAz if you mean pop as in the using the needle, then it might. If you meant pop as in using a hot tea bag to get the pus out eventually, then no. Both needle+alchohol and hot tea bags seems to work tho XD
my stye is white not red and its not really hurting me or stinging its just sitting on my eye and its annoying me soooo much and people keep trying to touch it and that doesnt help :-(
i hav a stye from last month...its not paining but its luking weird...i contacted a doctor n he gave sum anti-biotics tablet n a ointment...but still its not decreasing...nor its increasing....wat shud i do??
@RoCheesey a chazalion unlike a stye is not caused by a blocked hair folical or bacteria infection, and generally these will not dissapear over time or come to a head, its much like a small hard lump that will remain there until it is surgically removed, like a small hard cyst.
I've been doing that for the past 2 months on my stye but it has gotten worst! It's swelling over my eye, it's getting purple, crusting, and it looks disgusting! Should I go to a doctor for this?
@sankyuujanice go noww!...ive seen videos & people be saying it lasts a year or so. go to the doctor & they will take care of that monster..ugh i hate styes.
i have had a bump on my eye for i dont kow how long, but i dont want to use medichal attention, i have used hot/warm compressed water but it only made it smaller, but never fully got rid of it. if it is still ther for one month i will seek medichal attention, but befor i do, does any one have sugestions?
I had Stye like 2 months ago then after treating it it seemed to disappear but few days ago it came back! and i don't know what to do i don't wanna die I'm just not ready yet!!
I think it came back because i forgot to replace my contact lenses after the Stye seemed to disappear in the first time , so they might have been infected ever since
quick questin: is it common for the eye to get really bloodshot? that's how mine is right now. i think it joined the dark side. shame, lol. well if anyone could plz answer, i thank them.
I'm not an expert, but from my previous experiences with styes, I can tell you that bloodshot eyes come with styes because the bump is irritating the eye as if you were to poke it throughout the day.
@sonicvail well i don't think mine was a stye, but it 1st appered to be one. i think it was some other eyelid infection. luckily a much less serioes one(thank you God =]) it just made eye red but now it's pretty much gone. it probably should be gone by now but i have failed to keep a warm compress on it. i'll probably be doing that soon.
I have a pretty big one, its been on my lower eyelide (nose side and it seems its internal) for about 4 months now. How the hell is a hot cloth going to get this big sucker out of my eyelid???
If a stye lasts for more than 4 days, you need to go to a doctor. The purpose of the warm washcloth is to promote blood flow in the area of the style. With increased blood flow, your body's immune cells are better able to reach the area of infection, in order to combat it. However, if the body has not been able to fight the infection in four days, you need to see a doctor. 4 months?! Sounds like a more serious infection.
i look like mike tyson. i went to the doctor for having a sty under the top portion of my eye lid. they fliped my eyelid backward incisioned it open and now i look like i got knocked out. a small ball came out.
Boil some water add to a soup bowl, put handful of parsley in the bowl, let it sit for 10 mins, get a clean flannel or cotton wool & bath the eye with the parsley water for 15 mins.
Its a sty for god sake, deal with it & go to school, as long as you dont touch it your ok, its not about how you look, already your conditioned to think you must look in a certain way to be accepted, thats sad unfortunately for someone so young, give yourselves a break & live life.
i get sth like stye on my inner eyelid for the 2nd time. The doctor said its due to bacterial infection. Is it possible that a stye is caused by em dirty contact lenses? or eye makeup tat just doesnt suit your eyes?
you can get eyedrops that has medicine in it. I use the sty eyedrops and they clear right up! I have never squeezed a sty out in my life.Yay for the over the counter eyedrops
i read a great site that helped heal that you should touch the styes or itll spread. after the pus comes out, massage the eyelid gently. this will promote the circulation of blood to the eyelid and helps reduce fluid build up in the stye. wash hands frequently, close your eyes and use antibacterial soap, wash the outer eyelids daily. if stye doesnt heal in 10 days, contact a physician for an antibiotic. itll prevent the spread of the bacteria. doctor will prescribe an eye ointment or eye drops
Im 12 and i've had it for about 2-3 days. It scares me becaue i dont wat to go to school looking like a wreck. UGHH, i do apply hot water to it alot tho [;
dude thats happened to me, my stye did that like 3 days ago!! it doesnt hurt at all trust me, you just wake up and it feels like your blind in the eye with the stye, get a wet cloth and wipe it off, then its fine.
i had my two styes on inside my upper lip and one outside my lower lip and i had it for more than 10 months! i just wont got away but im putting hot water..and i really dont wanna go get it scrap off by the doctor
im 28 years old and have NEVER had a stye and in the past 2 months ive got 3. most recently ive had one on my right bottom lid and it HURTS!!!! anyone know what would cause someone to start getting them out of the blue like this or is it just bad luck???
I just got one today, but its on the inside of my eyelid, went to GP and he gave me some anti-biotics to take, but there are several and it scrapes my eye everytime i move or blink- Really painfull :(
ya fuck u lady a bunch of bull shitt....i had to see the doctor 6 times and have surgery on it 4 times and it comes back bitch...what do u say bout that u dirty cunt!
@rowan1802 i use to get them after i start eating mackeral fish you get in tins, i think it's because of the mercury not the fish. i have started eating manuka honey and i never get them now. you can use honey mixed in water and then use them in your eyes aswell. honey is antibacterial and is the best thing. rose water is also antibacterial and can use that for your eyes aswell, i hope this helps.
This is the best method I've tried, Only instead of a Hot cloth , My Dad , told me to Use a Tea Bag, and after one Night My Eye was almost completely healed up and the Pain was gone!!!! So heres the miracle cure for a STYE!!
yea put it in the hot water and then squeeze out all of the extra water. then put the tea bag on your eye. then every time it got cold i would put it on a paper towel in the microwave to heat it back up. i know you asked a few weeks ago but i hope this helps! :D
iv had 3 ( one on my left eye and 2 on my right, one of the top, one on the bottom) for the past thee or so months ! wha do i do ! i start college on tuesday an d i dont wanna look like a freak haha
you cant see a red bump on mine but its sore on the waterline and a little undrneath in the middle of my eye, it hurts everytime i blink 2. Its a little swollen underneath 2. is it still a stye?
ok listen take a green chili pepper hold it over a candle and get it hot (dont burn it) hold it to ur eye. do this 2-3 times a day and it should go away in a week :D BTW i did this and it workd this technique comes from south america
I recommend applying castor oil on your stye after the warm towel. Just dip a Q-Tip in the castor oil and apply to the stye 2 times a day after applying the warm towel. I Also recommend that you pull out any eyelashes that are on your stye. You can buy castor oil from your local pharmacy.
If one or more eyelash hairs are growing from the stye, take a tweezers and pull them out.
This will hurt. How much will depend upon the individual's pain threshold. But pulling the hairs from the stye will also facilitate its subsequent draining and healing. I speak from experience:) --
I'm sorry to tell you... using a cold compress reduces swelling but makes the pus in the gland solidified. with a warm compress, you hope to allow the pus to rise to the surface in liquid form, then drain. good luck. sry.
This sucks. I got one and it came to a head and popped, but i couldn't get it all out. now it's sealed and swelling again... some styes look small like a pimple. mine looks bigger than those mine has swollen my whole bottom lid. I'm a teacher teaching right now. it's so embarrassing.
Hey yes it definitely does work pal...I noticed that I couldnt feel it after 2 days then after 5 the swelling was gone and aDios stye=] mine was ultra small and I was the only one that knew about it
Goes away easily with anti-biotic and warm compresses. Don't wait for it to go away as the bacteria will only cause it to get bigger and swell even more.
the optometrist I went to told me to avoid anti-biotics because of a risk of allergy. if you develop the allergy due to use on a minor infection like a stye, you close out a large family of medications for later use. She said it happen to her son. I'll guess you are or have already taken the meds, so I hope this information is helpful to currently afflicted looking for answers.
im soo upset its just the beggining of summer and i have this stye and im going to a festival the day after tomorrow, does the warm compress thing have to be damp coz ive been using my hot water bottle from when i was a kid....
im really confused coz my eye is really puffy and i can feel the lump where the stye is but its just so swollen it looks like ive been smaked... :S
i have three styes now it sucks i dont even think i look pretty anymore because people look at me and now im trying the stye eyedrops and ointment both at the same time and hopefully it goes away oh how do they num it when you get surgery i need to know
if i just put really really really hot water on this will it go away faster?(mine is sooo small now). cuz putting a wash cloth on your eye is so boring and i dont get to do anything lol
I have had mine for 2 years and about a month ago another former in the opposite eye. Its a pain huh? If they find out whats wrong with yours tell me, i'm worried about mine too.
Haha I've also had a stye for 9 months now. And I've also tried everything... one time they drained it and the other they did surgery. And it seems to randomly get worse. It's really annoying.
I remember when I was young my mom would put pink blush like eye shadow on the opposite eye when I had a stye, so my eyes would match and maybe it would just look like makeup! LOL
I have one right now. I haven't had one since I was maybe 9 years old (I'm 22 now). I've been using a warm compress (cloth soaked in chamomile tea). I know it will go away in a day or two. I've noticed that my eyelashes are sparse where I got these styes, has anyone else had that happen to them?
Nooooooooooooo... worst news ever. It can't be true. :( I'm gonna look into this matter.. I'll let you know if I find out something worth sharing. Same goes to you :) Thanks.
i had one for 5 years and i was doing the warm thing for one week and it went away im only 12 and i have another one it sucks but its going down more faster
Not always that easy. Some styes are stubborn and get hard enough that they need to be cut out by the physician because no amount of warm compresses or stye ointments help.
As a teenager I had one of the stubborn ones. It was cut out after the area was numbed, and has not returned 25 years later.

@xiMaFiiAz if you mean pop as in the using the needle, then it might. If you meant pop as in using a hot tea bag to get the pus out eventually, then no. Both needle+alchohol and hot tea bags seems to work tho XD

@xiMaFiiAz what is a chalazion ?
RoCheesey 1 year ago
@RoCheesey a chazalion unlike a stye is not caused by a blocked hair folical or bacteria infection, and generally these will not dissapear over time or come to a head, its much like a small hard lump that will remain there until it is surgically removed, like a small hard cyst.

I've been doing that for the past 2 months on my stye but it has gotten worst! It's swelling over my eye, it's getting purple, crusting, and it looks disgusting! Should I go to a doctor for this?

I had Stye like 2 months ago then after treating it it seemed to disappear but few days ago it came back! and i don't know what to do i don't wanna die I'm just not ready yet!!
I think it came back because i forgot to replace my contact lenses after the Stye seemed to disappear in the first time , so they might have been infected ever since

quick questin: is it common for the eye to get really bloodshot? that's how mine is right now. i think it joined the dark side. shame, lol. well if anyone could plz answer, i thank them.
Zeruckiven 1 year ago
I'm not an expert, but from my previous experiences with styes, I can tell you that bloodshot eyes come with styes because the bump is irritating the eye as if you were to poke it throughout the day.
sonicvail 1 year ago
@sonicvail well i don't think mine was a stye, but it 1st appered to be one. i think it was some other eyelid infection. luckily a much less serioes one(thank you God =]) it just made eye red but now it's pretty much gone. it probably should be gone by now but i have failed to keep a warm compress on it. i'll probably be doing that soon.
Zeruckiven 1 year ago
I have a pretty big one, its been on my lower eyelide (nose side and it seems its internal) for about 4 months now. How the hell is a hot cloth going to get this big sucker out of my eyelid???
McRackin 2 years ago
If a stye lasts for more than 4 days, you need to go to a doctor. The purpose of the warm washcloth is to promote blood flow in the area of the style. With increased blood flow, your body's immune cells are better able to reach the area of infection, in order to combat it. However, if the body has not been able to fight the infection in four days, you need to see a doctor. 4 months?! Sounds like a more serious infection.

Boil some water add to a soup bowl, put handful of parsley in the bowl, let it sit for 10 mins, get a clean flannel or cotton wool & bath the eye with the parsley water for 15 mins.
Its a sty for god sake, deal with it & go to school, as long as you dont touch it your ok, its not about how you look, already your conditioned to think you must look in a certain way to be accepted, thats sad unfortunately for someone so young, give yourselves a break & live life.

Boil an egg. Rap it in a warm wet wash cloth and apply to the eye. Constant heat.
Once the egg cools...eat it.

@FaceInTheRain good idea
CoasterChick22 1 year ago
You can also apply a warm wet tea bag. Once the bag cools, simply reheat in the microwave. Along with the heat, the antioxidants can aid in healing.

i read a great site that helped heal that you should touch the styes or itll spread. after the pus comes out, massage the eyelid gently. this will promote the circulation of blood to the eyelid and helps reduce fluid build up in the stye. wash hands frequently, close your eyes and use antibacterial soap, wash the outer eyelids daily. if stye doesnt heal in 10 days, contact a physician for an antibiotic. itll prevent the spread of the bacteria. doctor will prescribe an eye ointment or eye drops

@rowan1802 i use to get them after i start eating mackeral fish you get in tins, i think it's because of the mercury not the fish. i have started eating manuka honey and i never get them now. you can use honey mixed in water and then use them in your eyes aswell. honey is antibacterial and is the best thing. rose water is also antibacterial and can use that for your eyes aswell, i hope this helps.

I recommend applying castor oil on your stye after the warm towel. Just dip a Q-Tip in the castor oil and apply to the stye 2 times a day after applying the warm towel. I Also recommend that you pull out any eyelashes that are on your stye. You can buy castor oil from your local pharmacy.
Oraclemonkey 2 years ago
If one or more eyelash hairs are growing from the stye, take a tweezers and pull them out.
This will hurt. How much will depend upon the individual's pain threshold. But pulling the hairs from the stye will also facilitate its subsequent draining and healing. I speak from experience:) --
AND the eyelashes will grow back, never fear:) --

I'm sorry to tell you... using a cold compress reduces swelling but makes the pus in the gland solidified. with a warm compress, you hope to allow the pus to rise to the surface in liquid form, then drain. good luck. sry.

Goes away easily with anti-biotic and warm compresses. Don't wait for it to go away as the bacteria will only cause it to get bigger and swell even more.
SpartanArmy647 2 years ago
the optometrist I went to told me to avoid anti-biotics because of a risk of allergy. if you develop the allergy due to use on a minor infection like a stye, you close out a large family of medications for later use. She said it happen to her son. I'll guess you are or have already taken the meds, so I hope this information is helpful to currently afflicted looking for answers.

The best way to clear it is to go to a eye doctor and perform a surgery...
I done tat 2 yr ago after suffer for 8 mths...
It clear once and gone...
Now it bad after 2yr...
The warm water theory jut help to reduce it but after a few days, it back again...
I guess i got to cut it again if it not clear within this 3 days...
Being around on and off for 3 wks...

Not always that easy. Some styes are stubborn and get hard enough that they need to be cut out by the physician because no amount of warm compresses or stye ointments help.
As a teenager I had one of the stubborn ones. It was cut out after the area was numbed, and has not returned 25 years later.
