Conservative treatment of chalazion

Chalazion is a very common disease in daily life. It will not only seriously affect the patient's normal life and work, but also cause great harm to their eye health. Therefore, it is particularly important to understand relevant knowledge and find scientific and effective treatment methods. Conservative treatment of chalazion can be achieved through eye massage, and attention should be paid to supplementing protein and vitamins in the diet.

1. Chalazion

It is normal for children to suffer from chalazions. When they first feel uncomfortable, they will find a small red lump above the eye. As time goes by, if it is not treated in time, the small lump will gradually grow larger. There are two symptoms when chalazion occurs. One is that the conjunctiva will turn red. In this case, it will not spread to the face. If a patient suffers from this type of chalazion, he or she can undergo surgery for treatment. The doctor will make a small incision in the eyelid and then take out the red part and the necrotic cell tissue. Generally, no scars will be left.

Another type of chalazion is a red lump that will gradually spread from the eyelid to the skin surface. The red lump will become larger and contain a large amount of necrotic cell tissue. It should be treated in time. If it is not treated in time, when the lump grows to a certain size, it will rupture. After the rupture, scars will appear on the eyelid. In severe cases, it will also cause the eyelid to evert.

2. Treatment recommendations

In terms of diet, children should be supplemented with more protein, vitamin A and vitamin C, which will make their skin better. The diet should not be too greasy and spicy, but should be light. They should eat more fruits and vegetables, drink more milk, drink more water and herbal tea. Children's stomach is more fragile and their body is not fully developed. They should arrange their diet reasonably under the guidance of a doctor and eat more easily digestible food.

When a child suffers from chalazion, when he touches his eyelid, he will feel mung bean-sized particles. When he notices this, he should be sent to the hospital for examination in time. Parents should not take it lightly. Some parents think that this is a minor problem and that going to the hospital for treatment will delay their children's studies. They delay the treatment in the hope that it will get better after a while, which causes the chalazion to gradually worsen and endangers the health of the children. There is no need to worry too much about the surgery. The surgery for chalazion is simple and quick. It is performed under local anesthesia and will not make the child feel any pain. Generally, the child will return to normal after one day, so parents do not need to worry too much.

In the early stages of a chalazion, when it is only the size of a mung bean, it can be treated with hand massage or hot compresses with a hot towel to promote blood circulation and absorption. However, this treatment process is relatively slow and the effects are slow to take effect, so surgery is the best physical treatment option. If a chalazion becomes infected again, it can be treated according to the treatment plan for a stye. When the inflamed area subsides, surgery can be performed to eliminate it. Pay attention to eye hygiene and keep it clean. Do not rub with your hands and pay attention to anti-inflammation.
