Stye: Sounds like you have a stye to me, too. Best early treatment is to apply moist heat. Take a hot wet washcloth using got tap water and hold it over that eye for about 5-10 minutes. Do that several times a day to help open the pores. It may take a few days. Don't get it too hot or you could burn the skin of your eye or face. Best of luck.
