Sty in the eye

2018-08-19 14:43:40
Hello..I found a sty in the left eye(?) few days ago. Perhaps it's 14th AUG. You can refer the picture attached. I've been taking antiphlogistic(anti-inflammatory) since 17th and appling eye drops of levofloxacin since 15th. The skin below the eye was swollen and it's painful when I batted the eye. The pain is getting less after taking the medicine. Now it's not painful when I bat the eye. The swollenness is getting less. But it's still a little bit painful when I press the skin with the finger. What do you think I should see a doctor? Or is it enough to taking the medicine and applying the eye drops? Please let me know..
