I really hate the Sty / Chalazion thing… Last Saturday I could feel the sty under my eyelid. As we were were getting ready to head home I would feel the sty under my eyelid getting larger and my eyelid was starting to swell. When we got home I put a hot wash rag on it (Microwave for 30 seconds). That really seems to make it feel better. I did not continue with the hot wash rags until Tuesday evening. I should have kept it up Sunday and Monday… but I didn’t.
This is a picture of it on Tuesday Evening and it was pretty swollen. I basically sat in the easy chair all night and kept the hot rags going from the time I got home until I went to bed. Thursday morning I had quite a bit of discharge and I was able to get a few hot wash rags on it, but it was still pretty swollen. It did not really start to subside until Thursday evening.

Looks painful Steve! I hope it starts to get better soon.
