A big, red sty is growing near my left tear duct. It hurts enough to make me squint and wince with each blink, but not enough that I can do any more than heed WebMD's advice: apply warm compresses to my eye 10 to 15 minutes four times daily for several days. Annoying. Like a cold or allergy that reminds you every few minutes that it's there, but not so severely to prevent you from trudging through the day. "Do not squeeze the sty; let it burst on it's own." How weak. I want action, man.
