Question

My 4-year-old has left eyelid ptosis, and the doctor suggests using hormones or immunoglobulins for treatment. Which type of globulin is this? Are there any side effects? I don’t want to give my child hormones.

Answer

Based on the information you provided, your child is experiencing left eyelid ptosis, but the specific cause has not been mentioned. Without determining the exact cause, treatment can be more complex. Currently, immunoglobulin therapy can be considered. However, long-term use of immunoglobulins may lead to a decrease in the body’s immune function. I hope this advice helps you, and I wish you and your child good health!
