What to do if warts grow on eyelids

As time goes by, for unknown reasons, red or orange bumps may appear on our eyelids. It wasn't obvious at first, but it grew bigger and bigger later. This is obviously the result of xanthelasma. Warts on the eyelids are likely caused by high protein or high cholesterol. So what should we do if warts grow on our eyelids? Today we will introduce some traditional Chinese medicine methods to treat yellow warts on the eyelids.

The growth of "soybeans" on the eyes may be caused by high blood lipids

Xanthelasma are yellow or orange patches of skin caused by lipid deposits on the eyelids. It mostly occurs on the eyelids. Initially, it is as big as a grain of rice, slightly protruding from the skin, clearly separated from the normal skin, with irregular borders, and may even cover the entire eyelid.

Generally speaking, people with xanthelasma also have hyperlipoproteinemia or hypercholesterolemia. Some scholars have found that among patients with hypercholesterolemia, 33% of men and 40% of women suffer from xanthelasma. Therefore, when you find that you have xanthelasma on your eyelids, it is best to check for hyperlipidemia. If so, it is best to pay attention to controlling your diet, eat a low-fat, low-cholesterol, low-sugar diet, eat less fat, lard, animal offal, egg yolks, etc., and eat more vegetables, fruits and vegetable oils.

Xanthelasma eyelids will not disappear on their own and will gradually grow larger over time. It is recommended to seek treatment as early as possible; the earlier the treatment, the better the effect. At present, xanthelasma can be treated with oral medications, as well as several other treatments such as freezing and laser. However, it is recommended to choose conservative traditional Chinese medicine treatment first. After all, no surgery is completely safe and there are certain risks.

It is understood that traditional treatments generally involve applying Chinese medicine powder to remove warts and applying some medicines externally. Long-term persistence will be effective, but the treatment cycle is long and the effect is slow to take effect.

The ability of the eyes to see everything and distinguish colors depends on the nourishment of the essence of the five internal organs. The essence of the five internal organs is all infused into the eyes and becomes essence. By combining the theory of the five wheels with the five internal organs and the five elements, we can infer the internal pathological changes of the corresponding internal organs by observing the changes in each wheel of the eye. We also use modern medical examination methods, taking the generation, restraint and control of the five elements as the starting point, to diagnose and identify the disease so that when the internal organs are in harmony, the eyes will be clear.

The eyes are where the vital energy of the internal organs gathers. The essence of the internal organs nourishes the eyes through the meridians, allowing one to see things clearly. Eye acupuncture therapy originated from the ancient theory of the Five Wheels and Eight Diagrams, which divides the eyes into eight areas using the Eight Trigrams. It connects the internal organs and the external shapes and colors of the eyes to diagnose the patient's diseases and body conditions. According to the theory of "observing diseases through eyes" in "Inner Canon of Medicine" and the classification of eye organs in "Standards of Diagnosis and Treatment", and based on the internal connection between eyes, meridians and internal organs, acupuncture is performed in specific acupoints around the eye sockets. Through repeated observation and treatment practice of patients, a microneedle treatment is formed.
