Have Irritation And Tears In Eye Due To Boil. Using Ciprofloxacin Eye Drops. What To Do?

Hi Dr Meyer.

I have slight irritation in my right eye ball. It seems that it is because of a boil. This was not very problematic in the early stages about a week ago. But now it seems to be causing irritation and tears from my right eye. I have started using ciprofloxacin eye drops for it. Please tell me, what needs to be done. I am afraid that it might grow further.
