Patient's question:
Girls tend to be more concerned about their appearance, so they always pay attention to their facial condition. Last week, I noticed a stye had grown under my eye. I applied a little ointment, but until today, although it has stopped being red, the hardened lump from the stye hasn't gone away. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is considered that it has not fully recovered yet, and it may also form an under-the-skin lump. You can consider focusing on anti-inflammatory treatment for a few days. Generally, it can gradually subside afterward. Applying heat can also help alleviate the symptoms. Avoid excessive eye strain and increase eye secretions. If the hard lump persists or does not shrink, surgery may be necessary. It is recommended to visit the hospital for examination in a timely manner.
