What to do if your eyes are itchy, red and swollen

Diseases are constantly taking away human health. We don’t know when and under what circumstances we will suffer from some unpredictable diseases. All we can do now is to learn more about the knowledge of diseases. Knowledge is not only useful to yourself. Sometimes when others don’t understand something, you can help explain it to them. Let us now understand the issue of itchy, red and swollen eyes and pay attention to our own health and the health of those around us.

Generally speaking, conjunctivitis, keratitis, blepharitis, trichiasis, foreign bodies in the eyes, and allergies can all cause itchy eyes. If you rub too hard or your hands are dirty, your eyes may become red and swollen. The itchy eyes of conjunctivitis and keratitis usually get worse when exposed to wind, are more severe in the morning, and slightly lighter during the day. Antibacterial or antiviral eye drops may be used. The eyes of people with blepharitis (small yellow-white or transparent oily bags grow at the base of eyelashes) are itchy, not when the eyes are open, but when the eyes are closed. You can use a clean cotton swab to break the oil pocket. The eyes with inverted eyelashes are itchy, but sometimes they are itchy and sometimes they are not. You can use a small mirror to look at the inverted eyelashes at the inner corner of the eye and turn them out. If the eyelashes at the inner canthus are long and hooked and cannot be turned out, you should go to the ophthalmology department of the hospital and ask the doctor to remove them. If there are long foreign objects in the eye, such as broken eyelashes, hair stubble, or thread wrapped in the conjunctival folds, itchy eyes may also occur. You need to go to the hospital and ask a doctor to check it out, because turning over the conjunctival folds is a technical job. Another possible cause of itchy eyes is allergies, which is spatial and temporal. For example, if you say you feel itchy at night but not during the day, it is very likely that you are allergic to the environment or things you use at night. You can try changing your environment and daily necessities to look for allergens. As long as you find the allergens and stay away from them, you can improve your symptoms. In addition, no matter what the reason for your itchy eyes, you can use a cool towel to relieve the itching. Do not rub them, otherwise it may aggravate the condition.

Health has become a topic that people pay more and more attention to. Various health-preserving methods and nutritional diet therapies are actually for the purpose of making the body healthier. Therefore, for the sake of health, accumulate more relevant knowledge, understand the solutions to itchy and red eyes, pay attention to all aspects of life, and provide more rational protection for yourself and your family, so that the clarion call for safety and health will become louder and louder.
