Hello
Welcome to HCM

Your daughter should be examined to confirm the diagnosis of stye. It is a acute inflammation of glands of zeis.

It is a very painful condition which may lead to swelling of the lid, discharge and fever.

I would suggest you to follow
1. Clean the eyes with hot water frequently.
2. Give hot fermentation.
3. Oral Antibiotics like Tab Zifi.
4. Oint Ciplox.

These aforementioned measures will help to reduce the symptoms and improve the condition. The prescription should be taken by consulconsulting your doctor.
Thank you.
