Yes, you DO have an infection. Visit the doc. Antibiotic eyedrops are useless for styes. You need ORAL antibiotics, and soon. Augmentin or Amoxycillin - probably two rounds of either - should help. There's an Amoxycillin which comes as a "Duo" product (i.e., combined with another drug), and it's excellent, but I live in Australia and don't know what you have in your country. Do it NOW! Good luck.
This sounds like Blepharitis and I agree with the post of shnovitz (our Aussie friend) and the treatment lies in daily hygiene, as routine as cleaning your teeth......GOOGLE it.
As shnovitz says......antibiotic drops are useless.....use antibiotic cream and hang back on the oral antibiotics for a week or so.
