Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I have gone through your query; it suggests that your daughter may be suffering from the stye.
In this condition in our patients, I prescribe 1. Warm compresses - lower eyelid to soften the material in the gland, easing the drainage of the gland's contents.
2. Topical antibiotic ointment to reduce the infection.
