Soak a clean washcloth in the hot parsley water, lie down, put the cloth on your closed lids and relax for 15 minutes. Repeat the procedure before bedtime. Parsley water is also good for eliminating puffiness around the eyes.

In addition to-or instead of-the roasted blancha tea bag remedy, dab on some castor oil several times throughout the day until the sty disappears.

Actually, the home remedies are the same as the doctor prescribed remedies.
Use a warm compress (washcloth or teabag soaked in hot water and wrung out) on the eyelid for 5-10 minutes at a time and do it 6-8 times a day until the stye points and heals.
To prevent styes, do lid scrubs. First use the warm compress, then "shampoo" your eyelids with either a commercial product made for this purpose (Lid Care) or a Q-tip and diluted baby shampoo.

I have plenty of experience with these....take a hot compress and hold it on the infected eye....continue this four times a day. the heat makes it feel better, and also helps with the swelling. then also you can put some stye medication on the area. it helps with the itching and pain. if the stye doesn't improve within 3 days of doing this, then go to the doctor....they can give you antibiotics or use a lancet.

Warm wash rag on your eye every twenty minutes is the best. But also stop using the eye that has the sty. Do not look at computer screen till it heals. Also can buy Stye medicine in the market that is an ointment for your eye. It works pretty good. But I think the warm wash cloth works the best.

Making dietary changes is your first line of defense in treating hypothyroidism. Learn here https://tr.im/F3gaf
Many people with hypothyroidism experience crippling fatigue and brain fog, which prompts reaching for non-nutritional forms of energy like sugar and caffeine. I’ve dubbed these rascals the terrible twosome, as they can burn out your thyroid (and destabilize blood sugar).
1. Just say no to the dietary bungee cord. Greatly reduce or eliminate caffeine and sugar, including refined carbohydrates like flour, which the body treats like sugar. Make grain-based carbohydrates lesser of a focus, eating non-starchy vegetables to your heart’s content.
2. Up the protein. Protein transports thyroid hormone to all your tissues and enjoying it at each meal can help normalize thyroid function. Proteins include nuts and nut butters; quinoa; hormone- and antibiotic-free animal products (organic, grass-fed meats, eggs, and sustainably-farmed fish); and legumes.
