What is the reason for the swelling in the right eye?

When certain organs of the body become diseased, discomfort will also occur in certain parts of the body. So what is the reason for the swelling in the right eye? Let’s talk about swelling of the face first. This often happens to people who stay up late at night. Lack of sleep will hinder the body’s circulation and affect the normal blood circulation, resulting in swollen eyes. In addition, this swelling may also occur if you drink too much water before going to bed at night.

1. Causes of edema

Facial edema often occurs in people with poor blood circulation and metabolism. This group includes people who are accustomed to drinking a lot of water before going to bed, people who often sit for a long time, people who usually have heavy tastes in their diet, people who often stay up late, and people who are born with poor metabolism. The resulting effect is that the blood circulation system becomes less effective, and there is no time to excrete excess waste water from the body. The water is retained in the capillaries and even seeps back into the skin, causing swelling.

The cause of puffy eyes is closely related to eating habits and bad lifestyle. Salt will cause water retention and slow down lymphatic circulation. Therefore, people who consume high-salt or spicy foods for a long time may not be able to effectively excrete toxins from their body. Long-term accumulation of toxins will naturally cause ugly edema. Drinking too much water before going to bed, sleeping in an improper posture, or using a pillow that is too low will cause body fluids to accumulate in the eyes while you sleep, which will cause swollen eyes due to the backflow of water in the body.

During sexual intercourse, high tension causes blood vessels to constrict, which can reduce blood supply to the eyes and increase eye fatigue; after sexual intercourse, the area around the eyes becomes dark and the eyelids become swollen. Eye fatigue and discomfort are signals reminding you to control your sexual desire.

Acute and chronic nephritis of internal medicine diseases can cause eye swelling. Your heart and kidney functions are not good. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a routine urine test to check your kidney function. If the urine test is normal, then there is no big problem. It may be that your circulatory system is not very good. Do you usually feel weak, dizzy, light-footed, and have loss of appetite? It is recommended that you participate in more outdoor activities and physical exercise. The simplest and most effective way to exercise is to insist on jogging in the morning to enhance the body's resistance to disease.

2. There are six reasons for the appearance of eye bags

1. Weakened spleen and stomach function can lead to water accumulation in the body, causing the lower eyelids to sag and form bags under the eyes.

2. The liver is one of the detoxification and hematopoietic systems. The liver opens up to the eyes. All liver problems are manifested in the eyes. If the liver cannot eliminate toxins, bags under the eyes will form.

3. Kidney deficiency can cause fluid metabolism disorders and insufficient kidney qi, which will lead to poor blood circulation and the appearance of bags under the eyes over time.

4. From the perspective of meridian theory, the stomach meridian runs through the lower eyelid, and the location of the bags under the eyes is the Chengqi point and Sibai point of the stomach meridian. The body fluid metabolism function declines and the gastric function deteriorates, which leads to the blockage of Chengqi and Sibai points.

5. The blood circulation around the eyes can easily become stagnant due to overwork. The blood vessels are blocked and blood flow back is poor, causing lymph metabolism to slow down, causing excess water and blood to accumulate under the eyes, and then forming bags under the eyes.

6. The skin is severely dehydrated. Every cell in the skin needs sufficient nutrients. When the skin does not have enough water molecules to support it for a long time, it will cause the skin to become loose, causing bags under the eyes to appear or worsen.

3. How are eye bags formed?

1. Congenital accumulation of fat around the eyes.

2. Poor sleep, high work pressure and long-term fatigue can cause poor microcirculation around the eyes.

3. As we age , the supporting strength of the muscles around our eyes decreases, and the skin becomes loose and sagging.

4. Reduced metabolic capacity and inability to eliminate excess water may also lead to the formation of eye bags. The most common groups include people under high pressure, night owls, and women over 25 years old.
