I have been told I have a stye; do I need to see a doctor?
No, the majority of cases resolve on their own and thus,
there is no need to see a doctor. The only time you need to see the doctor is if
the stye is getting bigger and appears to have pus.
At home, do not muck around with the stye and do not attempt
to rupture it. Apply a warm moist compress for 10-15 mins several times a day.
This will keep the area clean and dry. Avoid make up until it is healed.
