Question

I've had a chalazion on my left upper eyelid for about 3 weeks now. I've been using CIPZEN D for the last 5 days and it's gotten a lot smaller, but there's still a tiny lump left. Should I keep taking the meds or is there an ointment that can help it go away completely? I really don't want to go for surgery.
