Had a stye on right eye about 2 months ago but a small bump on the top eyelid remains. How can I get rid of it

typical.....what you have is called chalazion, it is a sterile inflammation persisting after the stye.....your doctor was partly right, 50 % disappear spontaneously, this is assisted by warm compresses, if it doesnt, it has to be incised, a very simple office procedure under a local anaesthetic. 2 months is a bit early, I would leave it for another 3 months. If u r still keen on getting rid of it, get it incised. Hope this helps.

I have had the same thing for years. Once I got the stye that was it. The stye went away and the little bump never did. Every once in a while it will exfoliate but otherwise causes not issues. I don't know how big of a bump you are left with, mine is really pretty small, almost unnoticeable, except to me. As long as it does not cause you discomfort, I would leave it alone for a while and see if it reduces in size. If it does continue to cause you trouble, then I would follow up with a dermatologist. Hope that helps.

Stye Bump

Treatment and management

Most styes will drain on their own though this may be accelerated with a hot or warm compress. Styes typically resolve within 1 week with treatment. [2]

Medical professionals will sometimes puncture a particularly persistent or irritating stye with a needle, to accelerate its draining. Their spread or expansion can also be fought with the use of antibiotic ointment akin to Neosporin (e.g. Erythromycin Ophthalmic Ointment), a special version being available for styes, which can be applied in a ribbon along the lid, on either inside or out.

One folk remedy calls for the rubbing of a gold ring on the stye[3].

it's a stye try putting a little coconut oil on it three times a day P.S. Inner eyelid? Oh, I'm sorry. Skip the coconut oil then. You should go to a doctor for inner eyelid problems.

Try squeezing it. Theres probably a little pus left. A stye is really a pimple. Other
