I'd just replace the whole cartridge. It comes with new seals and is simple to replace. Turn the water off, take the handle off. Unscrew the chrome trim and you'll see a nut holding the cartridge in place. Remove that nut and pull the cartridge out with pliers. Sometimes they are in there tight. Take it to Lowes/HD/Ace and match it up. I think mine is a Moen.
Put a dab of waterproof plumbers grease on it before you slide the new one in. Makes it easier to remove next time around.
