Conjuctivitis and Inflamation(inflammation) of the eye lid

Hello Doctor ! Can you please answer this question to me . I am 32 years old male , healthy and with no alergies (allergies) and history of any hereditary disease. I have somewhat healthy skin but sensitive .... I suffered an eyelid inflamation (inflammation) 4 years ago , It was a form of conjuctivitis or "pink eye" that due to stress and declined imunity at that time remained on my eyelid for about two weeks. I have an excellent hygiene and care for my skin and eyes well but somewhere I infected my eyelid and it was pretty severe. It then spread to my left eyelid , an upper eye lid and inflamations seemed to be around the eyelid hairshafts and in the root of the eyelashes. After the inflamation (inflammation) passed the scaring remained ... small and tiny but visible to the naked eye when you do an up close analysis.On my right eye the "bump" that is pretty small is still there and I suspect is a home to dormant bacteria ... just a few days ago I was in the sauna and then in some dusty area which re activated another severe infection of my eyelid and I currently have a pink eye , I am rinsing my eye every hour with warm chamomile tea and am not touching it . I want to erradicate this , what sould I do ? Should I laser my eyelid or what do you advise ? Please let me know .Thank you so much

You need to see an ophthalmologist.  You may have a chronic condition such as blepharitis and those small bumps may be meibomian gland inspissations, styes or a chalazion.
