rub a pure gold ring gently over the stye for a few secs.it helps reduce swelling but a stye is an infection so i recommend that you go to a chemist and ask a pharmacist for treatment :)

Ive gotten them before and it sounds weird but putting a hot(ish) tea bag on your eye for a few mins helps a couple of times a day! Well it helped me anyway :)

Definitely ask for an antibiotic, but in the mean time warm compresses will help. Get a washcloth wet with warm water and put it over your eye, refreshing it with more warm water when it cools. About 15 minutes should help reduce swelling for a while.

Also, sanitize your makeup (there are videos showing how) so that you don't get the same bacteria in your eye again and get another one.

you can usually place even just a warm wash cloth over your eye a few times a day. you may have to go to a doctor though if it lasts too long. and avoid using makeup until its gone cuz it will just irritate it.

I just had one and Googled it. Got rid of it quickly. Don't pop it. Hot tea bag, warm wash cloth several times a day. Hope that helps.
