Symptoms of granuloma

summary

Granuloma, also known as needle eye and palpebral gland inflammation, is an acute suppurative inflammation of sebaceous gland or meibomian gland near eyelash and hair follicle. There are two kinds of glands in the eyelid, called sebaceous glands at the root of eyelashes, which open in the hair follicles; Another near conjunctival surface buried in meibomian called meibomian gland, opening in the palpebral margin. Granuloma is the acute suppurative inflammation of these two glands. Staphylococcus aureus is the most common bacteria causing wheat kernel swelling. The symptom of wheat grain swollen? Let's talk about it

Symptoms of granuloma

Extragranuloma: acute suppurative inflammation of the Zeis gland (Tsai's gland). At the beginning, the palpebral margin showed localized hyperemia and swelling. After 2-3 days, induration was formed, with obvious swelling pain and tenderness. Later, the induration gradually softened, and yellow pustules were formed at the root of eyelashes. The perforation and pus discharge were rapid. Severe cases may have chills, fever and other systemic symptoms.

Endosteatoma: acute suppurative inflammation of the meibomian gland. Its clinical symptoms are not as severe as exosteatoma, because the meibomian gland in the inflamed state is surrounded by firm meibomian tissue. Yellow pus masses often appear on the surface of the congested eyelid conjunctiva, which may break through and discharge pus in the conjunctival sac by itself. There may be slight swelling and congestion at the opening of the meibomian gland, If the meibomian plate is not penetrated, and the pathogenic toxicity is strong, the inflammation will expand and invade the whole meibomian tissue, forming an eyelid abscess.

When the purulent fluid accumulates locally, the Yellow purulent head appears, and the extragranuloma occurs in the sebaceous glands at the root of eyelashes, which is manifested on the skin; Endosteatoma occurs in the meibomian gland, manifested in the conjunctival surface. Pain relief and redness subside after ulceration and pus discharge.
