a few months ago, i got an eye stye on my right eye near my tearduct.
yesterday, i felt severe pain on my left eye and i found i had gotten another stye on my left eye! IT'S SO SMALL but it hurts SO MUCH. i'm putting some ointment on it so it should heal within the next few days.
i have a few questions about eye styes
1.) i seem to be getting them more frequently (i know it's only the second time, but i've never had an eye stye before my first one!). i do use both eyeliner and mascara. what should i do to be more sanitary about it? i know you're supposed to throw away mascara every three months, but i use it until it's finished. i don't actually count how many months i've been using it. should i start? and i sharpen my eyeliner often so that the bateria is removed, so why do i keep getting styes? i'm assuming it's from my make-up cause i don't have diabetes, etc.
2.) in addition to what steps i can take to avoid getting styes in the first place, are they contagious? like if i touch my eye and then touch someone's hand and they touch their eye, can they get one or is the likelihood very small? i know it's caused from a certain type of bacteria so ...
3.) should i avoid certain things? is it okay to touch my eye when i put on the medication or should i use a qtip?
4.) because the stye is RIGHT under my upperlashline, almost on the pink part, i end up getting some of the ointment (just normal drugstore eye stye medicine) into my eye. if i want the stye to go away, i have to use the medicine, but it gets in my eye and the box says "for external use only." what should i do? should i try using less medicine or... ?

I used to get styes quite often... one things for shure if you end up with any eye infection you should throw out your eye makeup...(eye liner and mascara NOT eye shadow)
As for you medication i wouldnt want it in my eye... try putting less on a Qtip and then apply it.
OR
This is an old remedy i've always used. Take a gold ring and rub in on the exterior of the stye.
It's always worked for me.
