How Long Will It Take To Clear The Red Colored Sticky Eye?

Hi! I feel very hot, and last night the back of my eyeball was sore. I woke up this morning and my right eye is red and bloodshot at the 4 o-clock position, and feels rough and a bit sticky. How long should I leave it to clear up, before I see a doctor?
