Suggest Treatment For Stye

Hi I'm 15, about 5'12", 133 lbs and I basically have a stye. It's been about 2 months that I have had this stye and I have tried everything. I looked online and it said teabags were a good treatment, as well as a hot compress. I did both for weeks and my stye has gotten much better but is still not going away. What should I do?

Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

Stye is caused by bacterial infection of glands of Zeiss and moll.
The treatment of the condition is by use of antibiotic eye drops and antiinflammatory drugs.
Applying hot compression provides symptomatic relief.
