Patient's question:
When I woke up this morning, I felt something unusual in my eye. Looking in the mirror, I noticed a bump on my left eye, red and swollen-looking. After a careful examination, it was diagnosed as a stye, and I had surgery for it. I'd like to ask the doctor, is it normal for the bump to protrude after the stye surgery?Doctor's answer:
Had a stye, after surgery in a short period of time, the local area may again appear protruding, which is normal. It needs to gradually recover, so it is recommended that you don't worry and take a few days of preventive anti-inflammatory medication to prevent the spread of the disease. Additionally, apply anti-inflammatory eye drops and ointment locally, and always keep the area clean and hygienic. Absolutely do not eat spicy foods, and do not rub your eyes.
