Hello
It seems from the history that you are having a boil of the eyelid. This indicates a infective disease of the gland of the eyelid.
The treatment is by use of antibiotic eye drops and oral antiinflammatory drugs.
Applying hot compression provides symptomatic relief.
Since this involves prescription I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
I find this answer helpful
