Waahhh! I have an eye sty (or commonly known as kuliti in Tagalog). I cannot remember the last time that I have had this eye disease. But it was painful. I thought my eye was just swollen but I realize now that it was a sty. Do you know a medicine for it? Why is it that I have a lot of diseases? Hmmm.

I haven't had an eye stye in years, but whenever I got one I would use this old remedy grandmother, and mother their cure was to wipe the eye with urine. It never seemed to fail it worked every time I used my urine on the eye stye. "Go figure"

Yes, it works, believe it or not, and yes I have tasted my urine. That's how I found out I had type 2 diabetes, the urine was "sweet to the taste."....

Are you serious? That sounds a little gross, not to mention that it may infect the eye even more because of the bacteria in the urine. Are you you drinking your own urine too? Some people said its medicinal (like Juan Manuel Marquez) but I don't think so.

Haha. I just knew that someone will come up with that joke. LOL! If you think about it, it may be possible because the dirt from the wall may infect the eye of the peeping pervert. (Talking based on experience) LOL!

A sty, medically termed hordeolum is caused by an infection of the eyelids. This usually happens when the glands of the eyelids are clogged. To treat the sty, you just have to apply warm compress to the area for 10 to 15 minutes. You can also have yourself checked for the doctor to prescribe you proper medications. To prevent another infections, you have to clean your eyelids all the time using mild soap and water to prevent clogs.

Thanks for this advise. It may no longer be necessary though because it's about to heal now. But I'll take note of that for future reference.
