Posted on Mon, 9 Oct 2017

Question: I have a painful stye in the inside of my lower right lid. Now my undereye area and top of cheek bone are swelling. Other than hot compresses, can I do anything over the counter or Benadryl for swelling?! Please help!

Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone through your query carefully and understand your concerns.

I would request you to upload an image of the affected area. Please give it some time to recover. Meanwhile, just continue with the hot compress. The other mentioned medicines are unlikely to help.

Let me know if I could help further.
