With out going to the hospital how do you cure a stye from your upper eyelid.?

Warm compresses: A stye is also known as an external hordeolum, which is an acute purulent inflammation of the eyelid margin. Both internal and external hordeola can be managed with warm compresses, placed off and on for about 15 minutes at a time about 4 times a day. If it doesn't resolve in 1-2 wks and hardens, ophthalmology referral for incision and curettage is appropriate.

Heat and hygiene: Hot compresses and keeping the eyelid clean are the best treatment for styes. The sooner and more frequently you use hot compresses, the faster it will resolve. A good way to do this is to boil and egg and wrap a small wet towel around it. This will stay hot longer than just heating the towel.

Warm soaks: Standard treatment is to apply very warm wet soaks on a washcloth to the closed lids for 5 times per day, 4 minutes each time. This often will clear a stye in 2-4 days. If still persistent after that, see your ophthalmologist. You do not need to go to a hospital or er for a stye.
