Yes,don't squeeze.
Isolate the eyelash whose base is infected (that's what causes a stye by the way) -you'll know because the pain will be the most when you gently tug on the eyelash.
Get a clean pair of tweezers and pull out the eyelash in one quick motion.
Wash your entire face with soap and warm watert
Take a couple of aspirin tablets (they're anti-inflammatory).
Go to sleep.
Guaranteed to TOTALLY remove the stye within 24-36 hours; depending on the size of your stye.

Warm compresses about every 4 hours and an eye wash that has boric acid in it....DO NOT SQUEEZE IT! Try this for a day if it doesn't go down go see a doctor.

my son gets em alot. all you can do is put a warm compress on it and rub it out. like if it's at the edge of your eye, rub it away, outwards. should be gone for sure within a week if not sooner.
