Swollen Eye
Have been to a doctor and was given eye drops and was told to use warm wash clothe several times a day. Have done now for 4 days swelling has gone down but no stye has appeared. Do I need to go back to the doctor?

Hi, is it your eyelid that is swollen? I guess I wasn't clear on that. Maybe you are not going to get a stye (in case that's what the doctor said) My son used to get a condition called Blepharitis, and his eyelid would swell and hurt but no stye would be present. He used a q-tip with baby shampoo to cleanse his eyelashes and then applied triple antibiotic ointment to just the base of the lashes, was careful not to get it in the eye. That's what worked for him, but of course you should follow the advice of your DR. If what he/she told you is not working, you could always see someone else such as an opthamologist.
