Suggest Treatment For Severe Eye Pain

The inner corner of my eye is painful. If I open my eye too much it feels like it s pulling something. But i also recieve pain when I lay my head down. It wakes me up 2-3 in the morning and it s hard for me to fall bsck asleep. And when I do wake up the eye is nearly sticking together and I have to slowly pull it apart. It s tender, redder than the other eye, and draining from the corner. At this point I believe I should try benedryl for the mild swelling that s starting to happen.
