What is a sty?

Wort, also known as eyelid cyst, is a common eye disease. It is usually caused by hair follicle infection, and the most common pathogen causing styloma is Staphylococcus aureus. Wheaty swelling is usually characterized by pain, redness, swelling and local suppuration. It is located at the root of the eyelash at the edge of the eyelid.

Diagnosis and treatment

It is very important to see a doctor in time once the symptoms of wheat swelling are found. The doctor will confirm the diagnosis of styloma by observing the medical history and eye examination. The treatment methods for styloma mainly include the following:

1. Hot compress

Hot compress is a commonly used method to treat styloma. Use a clean towel soaked in warm water to gently apply it to the affected area, lasting for 15-20 minutes each time, and repeat 3 to 4 times a day. Hot compress helps to improve blood circulation, reduce inflammation, and promote the healing of lesions.

2. Antibiotic eye ointment

If the condition is serious or does not improve for a long time, the doctor may prescribe antibiotic eye ointment. The method of application is usually to smear it on the affected part before going to bed, and repeat it several times a day. Antibiotic eye ointment can directly act on the infected site, inhibit bacterial growth and alleviate the disease.

3. Surgery

If a stylosoma is accompanied by intense pain, high swelling, or abscess formation, surgery may be necessary. During the operation, the doctor will use local anesthetic, and then use a small incision to cut the purulent sac, drain the pus, and clean the wound. The operation is usually carried out in the operating room, which usually does not cause too much discomfort to patients.

Self care methods

In addition to medical treatment, self-care is also important. The following are some daily nursing methods that can assist in the treatment of styloma:

1. Avoid touching the affected part

Try not to touch or rub the stylus to avoid further infection or aggravation of symptoms. If contact is necessary, always wash your hands with hand sanitizer.

2. No makeup and contact lenses

During treatment, it is best to avoid making up and wearing contact lenses to avoid aggravating infection or stimulating the focus.

3. Keep good eye hygiene

Gently wash the eyes with warm water every day, especially the edge of the eyelids. Use a clean towel or gauze to wipe gently to reduce the chance of bacteria breeding.

Prevention and summary

To prevent wheat swelling, it is very important to follow the following points:

1. Hand hygiene

Keep hands clean and wash hands frequently, especially before touching the eye area.

2. Do not share cosmetics and personal products

Avoid sharing cosmetics, towels, pillows and other personal products with others to reduce the risk of infection.

3. Pay attention to eye hygiene

Clean the eyes regularly, maintain eye hygiene, and treat eye infections in time.

Wort is a common but easy to treat eye disease. Timely medical treatment, correct treatment and good self-care are the keys to rapid recovery. Through hot compress, antibiotic eye ointment, and surgery when necessary, most people can effectively treat styloma and restore eye health.
