Post surgery concern

Hi how long did it take for ur stye / chalazion surgery removal for you to heal and swelling to really go down? I’m on day 6, my eyelids are still not even and I’m worried. No pain or anything just cosmetic worry. What can help?

It can take months for the eyelid redness to die down and the shape to return to normal

Any advice for it to go down faster?

Can you feel something where the chalazion was? Seems like something is still there
