Hi conrad--glad to help; here's the BEST self-treatment method:

1. Warm, Clean Compress Soaks (just close your eyes & let the compress sit on the stye--best when lying down), for 15-20 minutes, at least 3x/day; THEN:

2. Apply Polysporin Ointment (or 'Triple Antibiotic Ointment'): a small dab right on the stye itself, for 3x/day [BEST to apply immediately following a Compress Soaking].

With THIS home-treatmt, MOST cases of STYES will self-resolve within 7-10 days; if NOT, please see your MD for Prescription-strength Antibiotics.

I DO hope you found my Answer to be helpful regarding your medical condition. IF SO-please hit **ACCEPT** (GREEN color) as you read this Answer. THANKS for your trust!

Best Wishes for Your Health,

--Dr. Steve, (Your Online Family Doctor)
