Brief Answer:
The symptoms indicate stye or hordeolum of eyelids.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.

I am Dr. Dadapeer K, an ophthalmologist and I will be answering your question.

I reviewed your history.
The symptoms you have mentioned indicate inflammation of the glands of the eyelids in the form of stye or hordeolum.
This requires treatment by the use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs.

I prefer to use antibiotic eye drops like Moxifloxacin eye drops and oral anti-inflammatory drugs like Diclofenac. Use of warm compression by applied against closed eyelids will provide symptomatic relief.
The condition usually resolves in 3-5 days.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for confirmation of diagnosis and prescription of drugs.

Hope this is helpful to you.

Thank you
With regards
