Is It Style On The Lower Eye Lid Which Is Sore And Pus Is Coming Out Of It?
I thought I has a stye on my lower eyelid near my nose, but is has been 2 weeks now and after applying hot compresses several times a day, pus started coming out last night. Today it is very sore to the touch and still about a half inch wide below my eyelid. I also have a little red blister on the rim do my eyelid near this area. Does it sound like something besides a stye?

Hi,
It seems that you may be having impetigo with stye. Impetigo is a bacterial infection caused by staphylococci. Consult dermatologist for perfect diagnosis and treatment. You my go for blood test to rule out DM,HIV or other internal diseases. Take a short course of antibiotics and anti inflammatory drugs. Improve immunity with immunoboosters. Apply antibiotic cream like gentamycin or nadifloxacin. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
