Multiple sties in one week? ?

Question

I have two sties- one on my right eye and another on my left. I was wondering if I should see a doctor or if the sties could be explained by something non-medical. Are sties stress related and/or can they be caused by rubbing your eyes too much!?

Please let me know you best medical opinion. If they are repetitive I'm thinking I should see a doctor.. but if not I will ride it out and do the warm/cold compress thingy.

Thanks so much!
