Suggest Treatment For Stye Inside Lower Eye Lid

I have a stye inside my lower lid. It has been there for several months now. I have used hot compresses everyday to no avail. I finally went to the dr and they prescribed Vigamox; however the condition is still present after 3 days use. I don't like to use medication unless it is absolutely necessary and so far I'm not certain this is. I am 43 yrs old 123lbs 5'4.

Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.

I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that you are having stye of the lower eye lid.
Stye is because of bacterial infection of the glands of the eyelid affecting the gland of zeiss and Moll.
This requires treatment by the use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs.
You need to take vigamox eye drops and continue hot compression. Along with this oral anti-inflammatory drugs are required.

Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Hope this is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.
Thank you
With regards
