Patient's question:
I have already started menopause last year and have officially entered the stage of a woman's menopausal period. Sometimes I feel particularly irritable, and I still experience some palpitations when taking afternoon naps. I also do some simple gym exercises, but recently I've noticed that my eyes are swollen. What should I do about eye swelling during menopause?Doctor's answer:
You can use a warm egg or hot water for a compress. It is recommended not to drink too much water before bed. Make sure to clean your face before going to sleep, and remove any makeup. Eye swelling may also be caused by overtime work, the amount of sleep you get, or your nap posture, among other factors. It is advised that you pay attention to rest during the day, avoid excessive overtime, maintain a proper and healthy diet, and ensure a balanced nutritional intake. During menopause, it is important to always maintain a positive and cheerful mood, and avoid suppressing your emotions.
