on my left upper eyelid, on the inside.

it's just generally painful whenever i touch it, I'm assuming it is a stye. any advice?

I think i've had it almost a week, it is getting annoying as fuck.

they usually go away on their own

if you're concerned see a doc

hot washcloth on eye. Don't pick at it.

cool, thanks

doing ^that now

also wash your hands and keep your fingers out of your eyes

i'm pretty sure you can get one in the other eye by doing that

if you have to itch it, itch it with the washcloth or something

whats a stye...i think i was told i had that happen once

i think it's a sore on the eyelid

sometimes you can see a little red ball looking thing like touching the eye and it's on the very top or bottom of a lid, but mine(assuming/hoping it's a stye) is completely under the lid and I can't see it.

google image searching things like this always sucks because they always show some extreme cases and i'm like "shit, i hope mine doesn't get like that"

they have stye away type products in the eye drop section at cvs. I don't think there are any other options.

dude just get a really small sewing needle..barely barely barely pierce the top layer and squeeze it together gently...should get all the puss or whatever that is out and it will heal in a day...idk how big yours is but mine were small...i always just thought it was a pimple

I mean i can't really see or touch it, it's in a very inconvenient spot under my top eyelid near the top of my nose. I'm just gonna wait a couple days and not fuck with it.

Yeah, don't do anything other than the warm compress. Anything else runs a risk of getting it actually infected.

Stye is when tarsal glands in your eyelid get clogged and backed up.
