Now the pus in the stye has solidified. Best way to remove is by making a small cut and evacuating the pus. Very small procedure. You can go ahead anytime

It's long standing so conservative and medical line of management won't work much. Definitive treatment is Incision and Curettage. Meet any nearby Ophthalmologist whenever safely possible next.
