Causes of appearance, symptoms and treatment of barley on the eye in a child
Barley in a child is quite an unpleasant disease, which gives him a lot of inconvenience and requires compulsory treatment.
The cause of this problem is supercooling, touching the eye with a dirty hand, as well as getting on the mucous membrane of pathogenic microorganisms. In addition, any other infection or inflammation may lead to the development of the process.
There is a pathology as follows: there is a burning sensation of the eyelid, itching, redness and swelling, possibly a fever. In the century a new growth, similar to grain, begins to grow. Inflammation is also accompanied by quite severe pain. The patient can hardly look at the light. Sometimes the "grain" grows to large sizes, due to which the whole eye swims. Barley can be localized under the eye (the child swells the lower eyelid) and above it, that is, in the upper eyelid.
- carefully observe hygiene;
- eradicate the bad habit of wiping your eyes with your hands;
- Do not let the child walk in cold and windy weather without a headdress, and also avoid drafts;
- Strengthen the immunity of the baby.
In case the "grain" does not break itself, the treatment of barley on the eye of a child is performed with the help of antibiotics in the form of ointments or drops (for example, the same "Albucid"). If the abscess is already visible, then the neoplasm should be burned with zebrafish or iodine. However, this procedure should be carried out very carefully.
Try to organize the correct regime of the baby, enrich his diet with vitamins. Limit the child to sweets. Strengthen the immunity of the baby and monitor the level of sugar in his blood.
If the situation is too serious (temperature, several foci, inflammation of the lymph nodes), then the treatment of barley on the eye in a child is performed with the use of antibiotics and under the strict supervision of the oculist. To squeeze out pus from a grain independently it is impossible at all, as you can bring an infection in an eye. And this can lead to the development of inflammation of the brain.
