How to prevent a chalazion from getting bigger and get rid of it?! (Photos)

Josieap
I had a huge chalazion in 2014 which was due to me wearing makeup and wearing monthly contact lenses, where I probably didn't clean it properly. I had it for a year, but had 3 operations to completely lance it, as mentioned on the post I made in 2014. It started 5 days ago but I acted faster than when I had the first one, doing compresses with salt, massaging it, using eye drops, ACV ( which has slightly burnt the skin :/) I just want it gone and not turn into the beast it was in 2014.
