my report consists of the following terms- mucosa of the gall bladder with foamy macrophages and mild subserosal fibrosis. Focal cholesterolosis. Could anybody explain in layman terms what it means ...
My doctor changed my medicine to Synthroid. My system crashed. All symptoms of low thyroid returned with a vengenace. My doctor insists my thyroid is fine. What can it be?...

How long does it take for a stye to go away?
I got my stye 10 days ago - it's under the eyelid on the inside. At first it hurt for a couple of days but then the pain went away and it slowly drained. But after a couple of days, I decided to check with the doctor and he gave me some antibiotics, which I promptly took and finished.
However, the stye is still there - hard, and lumpy as ever - and I am wondering when it will go, if at all. I don't want to think about the thought of surgery but if all else fails, that's my last choice.
So my question is: how long does it take for a stye to go away, and is there anything I can do to make it go faster? Warm compresses don't seem to work though.
a couple of weeks but the more u touch it , the more bacteria you put in it so try not to mess with it .do what your dr said and use the warm compress often

About 2 weeks, but there is a rare type of stye that lasts for months, I kid you not, when I was 10 years old I got a stye that lasted for almost 2 months, the docters said I could either wait it out or get surgary.

A sty usually goes away in a week or two. Chalazions generally take longer, disappearing after a month or more. Warm compresses can help both styes and chalazions go away sooner.

medically known as hordeolum, is an abscess of a grease produsing gland on or under the eyelid. It is caused by a bacterial infection and is commonly assoctiated with inflamation of the eyelid. When the sty bursts , there is relief from pain and an immediate improvement. Treatment is to bathe the sty with a cloath soaked repeatedly in hot water- thats all i know sorry
