Patient's question:
My daughter is now 15 months old. In the first two months, a stye grew on the upper eyelid of her left eye, but it was cured after taking medicine. However, now a chalazion has developed on the inner part of her left lower eyelid. Is this normal? Does it need to be surgically removed?Doctor's answer:
Problem Analysis: Hello, based on your description of your child's condition, it is likely to be a chalazion. It commonly occurs on the upper eyelid, with a slow course. The skin over the eyelid may be elevated, presenting as a palpable hard lump that is not adherent to the skin and is painless.Advice: It is recommended to seek a definitive diagnosis from an ophthalmology department in a reputable hospital. Pay attention to maintaining good eye hygiene. Hope this helps.
