A member asked:
I had a stye a week ago. and now it came back, at the same exact place as before (inner eyelid of my left eye). what should i do?

Stye treatment: Make sure you wash hands well before touching eyes to prevent recurrence. Avoid squeezing or popping stye manually. Avoid makeup to area while it heals. To allow stye to naturally drain apply clean warm compress to area multiple times per day. If stye becomes larger, more painful, or doesn’t clear up a few days after starting home treatment, contact your doctor
