Stye in the eyes is mainly caused by the patient's infection with Staphylococcus aureus. When the patient touches the eyes with unclean hands, uses expired cosmetics, or has poor immunity, he is prone to staphylococcal infection, causing sty. Patients with sty may experience symptoms such as redness, pain, elevated skin temperature, and pale yellow exudate.
Patients can use hot towels in the early stage to promote drainage of pus. If an abscess has formed, surgical incision and drainage can be taken to clean up the purulent secretions.
