Swollen eye
My eye has been swollen for about a week now. Both the upper and lower lids. I went to urgent care Wednesday and the doctor didn’t examine as well as I would have liked but h said I had a stye that seems to be infected so he prescribed me neomycin eye drops to use every 4 hours. By Saturday morning there had been no improvement so I went back and he said maybe I needed an oral antibiotic. I now have Keflex and I’m concerned that it may not be a bacterial infection.
