Hi there I understand your concern and anxiety... Give hot fermentation to reduce local inflammation with over the counter pain medications... You can use same medication but bye a new one and use it 3 to 4 times a day...if no improvements consult nearest opthalmologist for clinical examination they will do the needful.
