What is chalazion

summary

Recently, my eyes are always sore. They didn't hurt or itch before. These days, it hurts when I touch them lightly. I got up this morning and found that my whole eyes are swollen. They are very swollen and feel dry. The doctor said this is chalazion. Now let's talk about what is chalazion.

What is chalazion

First, chalazion can be accompanied by bacterial infection and chronic conjunctivitis, which is chronic conjunctivitis caused by a variety of reasons. Its etiology includes bacterial infection, stimulation of adverse environment, influence of eye disease, bad living habits, etc. The clinical features are eye discomfort, white foam secretion, slight congestion or congestion of the conjunctiva.

Second: itching, foreign body sensation, aggravation at night or during reading. The conjunctiva is very congested and the white foamy exudates on the canthus. Chalazion (meibomian gland cyst) is a chronic inflammatory granuloma of meibomian gland. It is formed on the basis of obstruction and secretion of fat secretion in the duct of * meibomian gland.

Third: the small mass of granuloma can be completely absorbed by itself, or penetrate the conjunctival surface, discharge the colloid like content, and form mushroom like granulation proliferation. This granulation tissue can also form papillary proliferation on the surface of palpebral margin through the discharge duct of meibomian gland.

matters needing attention

If the chalazion is mild inflammation, local hot compress can promote suppuration, and mild inflammation can disappear completely after hot compress. Don't wait for the ulcer to break by itself, which can reduce the pain of patients and shorten the course of treatment.
