What should I do if I have granuloma in my eyes?

In life, many people have granulomas in their eyes. If it is a simple small granuloma that is sterile, it can usually be treated with local hot compresses and anti-inflammatory eye drops. If the cyst is more serious, you can first take anti-inflammatory measures, and then perform surgical treatment for the cyst after the inflammation is under control. However, if you develop cysts in your eyes in your life, you must go to a regular hospital for examination and treatment in time.

What should I do if my baby has granuloma?

1. Initial stage.

It is not easy to detect granuloma in the early stage because it is not obvious. However, careful mothers will clearly feel small raised bags under the eyelids when feeding or washing their babies' faces, or accidentally touching their babies' eyes. The babies themselves do not feel any discomfort and still eat, drink, and smile as usual. Sometimes they may feel a little oppressed and rub their eyes with their hands.

At this time, parents should think about whether their children have eaten any food that they don’t usually eat recently, or whether they have eaten too much of a certain type of food recently. Many diseases are caused by the mouth. See if not eating or reducing the amount of food has any obvious help on your baby's symptoms. In the early stages, you can use hot compresses and apply some erythromycin eye ointment before going to bed to reduce inflammation.

2. Try to let your baby eat light food.

This is the experience I gained from searching on the Internet again and again. It varies from person to person. My baby eats too much meat and fish, and every time he sits at the table, he always orders food by shouting "meat, meat". Later, she paid attention to the combination of meat and vegetables and tried to eat light meals. The bag that was the size of a soybean, red, swollen and filled with pus finally became smaller. After more than two months of adjustment, there are now only mung bean-sized granulations and there seems to be no pus inside. I hope it can be absorbed soon and return to normal.

3. Severe period.

When the baby's condition was severe, she felt her eyeballs were compressed and her eyelashes were squeezed. She looked very uncomfortable, but she herself did not show any abnormalities. Asked her if it hurts? No, it doesn’t. Does it itch? Not itchy. At that time, the adults really couldn't bear to watch it anymore and felt that they couldn't bear it anymore, and they wanted to take the patient to the hospital for surgery. But I remember one time when my baby had a cold and was receiving an IV in the hospital. When the needle was inserted into her head, three adults were holding her down. Her heart-wrenching cries of “Mommy, Mommy” seemed like just yesterday, and I backed off. I didn't go to the hospital, but applied erythromycin eye ointment at home. Apply it whenever you have nothing to do, and apply it one last time before going to bed.

4. Why do babies suffer from granuloma?

The authoritative statement is that the eyelid gland plate is blocked and secretions accumulate, forming this cyst. Hot compresses are expected to improve the condition in the early stages. Some babies will recover on their own later in the course of the disease. Some adults will also be affected. The choice of surgery or self-healing is different for each person. As for what are the dangers? I'm not a professional so I can't really say for sure, but it rarely turns into cancer. The worst result is leaving scars after the ulcer breaks. So how to choose depends on the parents.
