Styes reocurrence

2018-03-11 12:25:09
I have been on a homeopathic treatment for styes but they keep on reocurring. It was on a stop for 4-5 years but it reoccurred again a week back and even after a homeopathy treatment does not seem to go away. Any suggestions how to avoid ?

Hello Main cause of recurrent stye is poor lid hygiene, diabetes etc Maintain lid hygiene by warm compresses followed by lid scrub with baby shampoo and apply antibiotic ointment like azithromycin locally over lid margins Avoid rubbing eyes Use goggles whenever you drive Maintain proper lid hygiene and it will not recur
