Augmentin will help in acute inflammation only. If lumps are old and chronic. Like chalazion, treatment changes.

What is a Stye?
A stye or sty (hordeolum) is a red bump, sort of like a pimple, that forms on the outside edge of the eyelid. Your eyelids have lots of tiny oil glands, especially around the eyelashes.

Symptoms of a stye include:

Pain and swelling
Increased tear production
A crust that forms around the eyelid

Do lots of hot water fomentation and maintain lid hygiene. Antibiotic eye drops if there is proper discharge. Above all visit the ophthalmologylist to first confirm its a Stye!

Hi lybrate-user,
these lumps that you are describing can be due to a condition called chalazion, or it could be a healed stye, or even a cyst. Correct diagnosis without examination should be avoided. Normally they disappear with time, but if they don't and if they are multiple, like in your case, you should see an ophthalmologist and get it checked. Its management is quite simple and you can get rid of them in no time.
Share pic for further info. Thanks.

Ice pack application can help u ease symptoms.
Antiallergic eye drops might help u if allergic cause.
