My right eye hurts, what to do?

My right eye has no redness, it is painful and it is giving me headaches at the right side and I can feel my teeth throbbing at the right side too, and  my right eye has become a little more blurry than before and it is a little swollen although it is not noticeable.

It all started about 1 and half weeks ago, when I am putting on my contact lens, after a few hours, my right eye is constantly getting blurry fast after blinking and it became painful, and since that day I have stopped wearing contact lens, but there wasn't much recovery, I have went to see the doctor 2 times, I was told that I have an internal sty and I was given anti-biotics (CLOXACAP) to be taken orally and anti-biotics eye drops (Fucithalmic) and cream (Terramycin), I have been using them for about 3-4 days and I think there wasn't much improvement, the pain and blurriness is still there in my right eye, please I really need some help and advice, this is affecting my studies :(

By all means do not put the contact lens back in. You have two options: go back again to the eye doctor that fit and treated you or go to a doctor with more training and experience. You should be seeing an eye MD ophthalmologist not an OD optometrist.   99% of the time it is a complication of the cornea related to the contacts.
