Question
What are the causes of a four-year-old boy frequently having styes?
Answer
A four-year-old boy frequently suffering from styes may be due to regional suppurative inflammation caused by wheat granuloma. Initial treatment may include oral antibiotics or antibiotic eye drops to control the inflammation. If the gland opening is blocked, leading to swelling and inflammation, surgical incision treatment is necessary. Improving physical and nutritional conditions, and avoiding excessive intake of high-fat and high-sugar foods are important measures to prevent recurrence of styes.
