Hello
It seems from the history that you are having a inflammatory lesion involving the glands of the eyelids like hordeolum. The treatment is by use of antibiotics eye drops and eye ointments. Since it is no longer painful analgesics and antiinflammatory drugs may not be required. Applying hot compression provides symptomatic relief.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
