There is a bag outside the upper eyelid

Clinically, the symptoms of many diseases occur in the eyes, and the eyelids may also have some unusual symptoms, so you must pay attention to discover them. Many people have experienced a lump growing on the outside of their upper eyelids. The causes of this situation are quite complicated, and the specific cause still needs to be determined based on the symptoms. The precipitating factors should also be considered during treatment. What’s the matter with the lump growing outside the upper eyelid?

1. Getting angry

If there is a bag on the eyelid, it is probably due to the redness and swelling caused by stye caused by inflammation of the local hair follicles due to heat. Active antibacterial and anti-inflammatory treatment can be used. The above situation will soon get better with active infusion treatment. Erythromycin eye ointment can be applied locally to help treatment. If necessary, go to the hospital's ophthalmology department for excision, and the condition will generally get better soon.

2. Inflammation

It is generally an acute inflammation caused by purulent bacteria invading the eyelid glands. When the stye is locally red and swollen, hot compresses are required, and antibiotic eye drops and erythromycin eye ointment are used for treatment. If an abscess is formed, surgical incision and drainage treatment is recommended. Avoid spicy food in daily diet.

3. Others

If the lump on the eyelid is painless and itchy, it is generally considered to be a chalazion, also known as a chalazion. It is a granuloma caused by the poor discharge of meibomian gland secretions, which accumulate locally and irritate the surrounding tissues. You can apply a hot towel to your eyes for 15 minutes each time, 2-3 times a day. Promote the disappearance of lumps. However, if the hot compress is not effective, the cyst is large, and causes eye discomfort, surgical removal should be considered. In addition, there is a big lump growing on the outside of the upper eyelid, which is considered to be a stye. You should pay attention to taking antibiotics, such as levofloxacin. But you must avoid spicy and irritating foods, be careful not to eat eggs and chicken, and you can use a clean hot towel to apply heat, pay attention to getting more rest, don't stay up late, and pay attention to strengthening your physical fitness. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables and drink plenty of water.
