What is inflammation in the hair follicle of the eyelash or in the sebaceous gland called?

Ms.Heidemarie, don't put ta in you eyes...

When I was younger I had a sty that was a bad experience. I am glad it only happened once.

I used to suffer with stye infections as a child, very painful, I always wanted to rub my itchy eye but it did have one good point, selling the pig and making my dear old mum some money afterwards!

my stye is fine

A gold ring dipped in black tea, rubbed in affected area, alleviate pain and heal the stye.

A hard boiled egg works much better than a washcloth.
