Do you have a stye on your upper eyelid?
And you are looking for a treatment to cure it quickly and preferably without a prescription.
A stye is a small boil located on the eyelid, often at the base of the eyelashes.
It is not very contagious, but it is quite painful to bear.
Fortunately, there are natural remedies to facilitate faster healing of external styes.
Here are 3 effective grandmother's tips for naturally relieving a stye.
The most common and most natural method is still the very simple compress.
To do this, boil some water and let it cool. Moisten a compress with this water. Then apply it to your sore eye.
You can do this for 10-15 minutes, 2 to 3 times a day.
An alternative is to use green or black tea, or thyme or chamomile infusions.
These plants have soothing anti-inflammatory properties which I often tell you about. They can speed up the healing of your styes.
In this case, apply the tea or herbal tea bag directly, when it is lukewarm.
Treat it like a water compress.
Do you have a special medicine kit homeopathy?
Now is the time to dig into it. Especially for recurrent styes.
From the first symptoms, after cleaning the ugly plotter with a compress soaked in boiled water or saline, you can take:
- 2 doses of hepar Sulfur in 15 or 30 HP
- 2 doses of pyrogenium in 15 HP
You do this 2 times per day for 2 days and normally the stye should not develop.
In order to reduce the accumulation of pus, in the case of an established stye, take belladonna in 9 CH, 3 pellets 5 times per day.
Do you know the surprising method of our grandmothers? I couldn't believe it, but a friend confirmed that it worked.
It's about passing a gold jewel (preferably clean!) on the stye.
Honestly, I've never had a stye, so I haven't tried it yet. But I would be curious to know if you have already tried.
Good to know: smaller styes go away on their own after a week or two.
Smaller ones are more prone to styes. From the first appearance of small suspicious pimples, immediately clean the eyelids of your infants with physiological saline.
This will allow your child to avoid future recurrent styes.
A small mild shampoo for baby can also be used to very gently clean the eyelid at the base of the eyelashes.
For babies, I encourage you to see the pediatrician without delay. It is at this age that we are most fragile and that we can avoid problems in the future.
