| Zeke has a sty :( Poor Zeke we discovered a sty in his eyelid! Its a little red bump right on the edge of his eyelid. We've read on some posts to clean with warm water or use a warm tea bag. Do you guys think I should take him to the vet or do you have any suggestions that could help? The overprotective mom I am I'll probably be calling the vet tomorrow anyway... |

| Poor little Zeke.Stys can be painful as well as irritating. I would call the vet. The vet can probably give you some suave to clear it up quickly.

| sadly for styes there is nothing you can do but warm compresses like in humans but you can have vet check to make sure no scratch on the eye. Eyes are nothing to mess with so at least have vet check it out but they will probably just tell you warm wash cloth compresses Stye, Styes and Chalazia - Symptoms, and Treatment |
