Barley. What to do?

Stye is an acute inflammation of the hair follicle and sebaceous gland on the edge of the eyelid. It manifests itself in the form of redness, itching and watery eyes. Often, stye occurs due to an infection that enters the hair follicle or sebaceous gland. Some people resort to folk remedies such as spitting in the eye, but this is not an effective treatment. Instead, you can use herbal remedies that have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

One of the most effective herbs in the treatment of barley is chamomile. To prepare the decoction, take 1 tablespoon of dried chamomile flowers and pour a glass of boiling water. Let steep for 30 minutes, then strain and reheat slightly. Soak clean gauze in the prepared infusion and apply to the sore eye 3 times a day for 15 minutes. This will help reduce inflammation and relieve pain.

Another effective folk remedy is garlic. Chopped garlic can be gently rubbed onto the edge of the eyelid, which will help kill bacteria and speed up healing.

In addition, you can drink aloe juice to prevent eye diseases. It is recommended to take 1 teaspoon of juice twice a day. You can also make an infusion for lotions from aloe. To do this, you need to take 5 g of fresh aloe leaves, chop them, pour a glass of cold boiled water and let it brew for about six hours. Then soak a cotton pad in it, squeeze it out lightly and apply it to the sore eye in the morning and evening.

It is important to remember that you should not squeeze out the abscess yourself. To drain the pus, doctors usually remove the eyelash. If the stye does not go away after a few days, or if it is accompanied by soreness and fever, you should consult a doctor.

Thus, stye is an unpleasant disease, but it can be treated. Using herbal remedies, aloe and garlic can help reduce inflammation and relieve pain. It is important to remember that if a stye does not go away or is accompanied by other symptoms, you should consult a doctor.
