Can you have a sty in your mouth and what is the worst that can come from them?!


Question:

Answers:
You cannot get a sty in your mouth. By definition, a sty only occurs on the eyelid.

A sty is a pimple or abscess on the upper or lower edge of the eyelid. It is a sign of an infected eyelid gland. Sties are usually harmless and rarely affect your eye or sight. Sties can occur at any age and tend to recur elsewhere in the lid.

Sties usually occur on the outside of the eyelid but they can also occur on the underside of the eyelid.

A sty can be a symptom of other ailments such as diabetes and chronic skin problems. Sties are not contagious. They are also called hordeolums.
