How Can A Stye On The Lower Right Eyelid Be Treated?
I have a sty on my lower right eyelid for about a week, the sty is actually getting better, been using warm compresses. Now the outer corner of my eye is really sore as well as the glands at and below my lower jaw. Is this a normal part of the healing of a sty?

Hi. If you have a small, red, tender bump inside or outside your eyelid, it's probably a stye. It looks like a pimple, and it can be sore!
. But it's not usually serious and won't affect how you see.
After several days, most styes burst and go away on their own. But cleaning it will help bring the pus out. Then it will drain on its own.
Keep your face and eyes very clean, and get rid of any crust you see around your eye.
Best regards
