Every child has his or her own characteristics. As a parent, you may not be able to tell what your child is trying to express by their expressions, behaviors and vocalizations. Take the example of a child’s reaction to dozing, the form of expression varies from <\/span>person to person.Some may cry, some may lose their temper, some may rub their eyes, or a variety of other reactions. Among the many reactions, in my position as a doctor, <\/span>the most unwanted habit is <\/span>“rubbing eyes” because this will easily cause inflammation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Eye inflammation is not caused by unclean hands<\/span><\/b>\uff1f<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Interestingly, the inflammation was not due to the child’s unclean hands, but to other <\/span>causes. In this case, the inflammation was not initially caused by bacteria, but by <\/span>a blockage of the secretory glands <\/span>near the eyelashes. When the hand rubs against the <\/span>eye, the originally open ventral <\/span>outlet is disrupted by the external pressure, causing <\/span>pressure in the gland as the oil <\/span>cannot be expelled, which then causes an inflammatory reaction. This <\/span>inflammatory reaction is superficially the same as a normal bacterial <\/span>inflammation. The difference is that <\/span>in this case, antibiotics (topical and oral) are not <\/span>effective. The correct method is to do warm compresses for your eyes, which is <\/span>intended to open the <\/span>blocked outlet and make the inflammation disappear slowly.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

=How to treat eye acne<\/span><\/b>\uff1f<\/span><\/b><\/p>

To treat an existing eye acne, besides seeing a doctor, the most basic method is to\u00a0<\/span>do warm compresses as described\u00a0<\/span>above. Choose a reheatable heat pack or use a lightly heated towel. Do warm\u00a0<\/span>compresses for 5 minutes, 3 times a day. The need for <\/span>antibiotics is at the discretion of the doctor. However, the following principles apply.<\/span><\/p>

– Whether the inflammation of the eye acne exceeds the normal case<\/span><\/p>

– Is there any bacterial inflammation of the conjunctiva?<\/span><\/p>

– Is the tissue around the eye red and painful?<\/span><\/p>

– Whether the child is able to control his or her own eye rubbing to reduce the\u00a0<\/span>possibility of bacterial inflammation<\/span><\/p>

Early treatment of ophthalmia<\/span><\/b><\/p>

If the inflammation is not controlled, the swelling may not disappear on its own. In this case, surgical release of the swelling is a must. Although it may sound scary, the <\/span>procedure is actually a simple one and only requires local anaesthesia. Therefore,\u00a0 <\/span>parents only need to follow the doctor’s advice and they can rest assured.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

All in all, our biggest fear is not\nthat our children’s hands are dirty, but that they keep <\/span>rubbing eyes. If the eye infection\nis caused by nasal allergy, eye allergy and eczema, <\/span>parents must take it seriously.\nParents should feel free to use medication when they <\/span>want to, without having to worry\nabout how long it will take and the side effects that may occur.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
