try a warm tea bag first, if that doesnt help go to the eye dr. he can remove it.

There's a lubricant that they make to put on your eyelid, I think it's actually just called 'Stye'. It alleviates the pain and the pressure coming from underneath. I also find that plenty of sleep and rest helps, since it is a viral thing.

Yeah I used to get them when I was little all the time. Most times they will go away with warm comresses and maybe a warm tea bag like someone else said. But you have to be extremely careful to not touch your other eye with anything that you touched the infected eye with, that means your hands and definately the tea bag or compress you used. If it gets very very bad, you would have to go to the doctor but i never had to and I unfortunately transferred it from one eye to the other all the time. Its hard not too but you do the best you can.
