What is the reason for frequent eye mucus

Many people are troubled and embarrassed by frequent eye mucus, so in order to effectively solve the problem and reduce the impact, you must understand the cause. In traditional Chinese medicine, too much eye mucus is mostly caused by heat in the liver meridian, stagnation of liver qi, and internal internal fire.

1. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that too much eye mucus is caused by heat in the liver meridian, stagnation of liver qi, and internal internal fire. Therefore, using appropriate Chinese medicine to regulate the body, paying attention to diet, and avoiding spicy and hot foods can help reduce the production of eye mucus. When normal people wake up in the morning or wash their faces, they will find a very small amount of secretions in the corners of their eyes. This is related to the reduced eyelid movement, reduced tear secretion, and slow discharge during sleep at night.

2. Normal eye secretions mainly come from the lacrimal glands, meibomian glands, mucus secreted by ocular surface cells, and desquamated ocular surface epithelial cells. Most of them are transparent or light white and are usually not easy to detect. Because the amount of secretions is small and can be discharged from the tear duct in time, it will not cause eye discomfort. Usually, if you use your eyes for a long time without rest, the secretion of the eyes will increase, and eye mucus will usually accumulate in the corners of the eyes after a few hours.

3. Therefore, we should pay attention to eye hygiene and avoid excessive eye fatigue. Every once in a while, we can gently touch the corners of our eyes with our fingers to see if there is any accumulated eye mucus. If so, we can wipe it off with a tissue to maintain a good image.

4. If the eye mucus is secreted excessively for a long time, and contains pus, blood, water or stickiness, it may be an eye disease. You should go to the hospital for examination so that appropriate treatment measures can be taken.
