Stye (On the Eyelid)

A question about : Stye (On the Eyelid)

Does anyone know how to get rid of a Stye? I've got one this morning, and its really sore. I am going into hospital on Friday for an op, and its probably come up because I am nervous and not sleeping well (well thats what my mum would say!!)

Any advice?

Thanks Frizz

• I had a stye recently and went to the pharmacist for advice.

  Hoping that as this advice came to me from a pharmacist, I'm not contravening Martin's sticky post above...
• Have you looked at NHS Directs webpage
