normal? no but it can happen. keep in mind that this eyelid lump may not be a sty (hordeolum) at all. there are other lesions like a chalazion that can be present for a long long time. at some point you may want to see a ophthalmologist so you can have this lump properly examined diagnosed and treated.
is it normal to have a sty for more than a year? . my sty directs inward and painless though it causes my eyelid to have a lump. is it normal to have a sty for almost 2 years?
