I have a stye in my eye and need to get rid of it?

Question

I hae a stye in my eye and I want to know how to get rid of it.Where do they come from?

Answer 1

the term "stye" is a bit of an "umbrella" term in that it is used to describe an eye problem which is from one of many causes.

The best treatment is time and warm, damp compresses - applied as often as possible.  while antibiotic ointment is sometimes prescribed, it has no effect if stye is caused by virus or "mechanical trauma" (ingrown lash for example).

Answer 2

A stye is actually caused by a bacteria, an infection, and you may need antibiotics to treat it, but sometimes it will go away on its own.  Soften the stye by applying a hot, moist compress several times a day for at lease 10 minutes at a time.    

Whenever you are treating a stye, be very careful and resist the urge to pop or squeeze it! Do not rub your eyes because you can easily spread the infection to your other eye - that is unless you want a matching sett.  If your stye does not go away within a week see your doctor about getting antibiotics.

Answer 4

Put a tea bag in some hot water, then take it out, and put it on top of it, this will cause less swelling, and lots of relief, but you have to see a doctor to get a prescription to heal it completely , but eventually it will go away if you do not.  

Answer 5

They are caused by a virsus. if it seems to be persistent you will need to see your eye doctor.
