Stye on eye and Doxycline?

[tommyboy]

I had a stye on my upper right lid two weeks ago. I used warm rice presses and my doctor also prescribed Doxy 100mg, twice a day for a MONTH and then once a day for another TWO months. He said inflammation can be what is causing my severe pain (flare up for 5/6 weeks).

Does this sound normal or excessive?
