Stye?

Hi, two days ago on my right eye near the top eyelash and eyelid, i felt an itchy sensation. Then when i awoke the next day my eye was swollen but i didn't feel the itchyness. It hurts when i touch it , but i dont think i see a bump. It just makes my right eye look smaller and my eyelid looks droopy.
And idea what it is and how i can get rid of it? I mean i guess it's probably a stye but my eye doesn't look like the pictures I've seen online.

An early stye does not necessarily cause a bump.  Try warm compresses four times per day and see an ophthalmologist if not better in few days.
