What causes eyebrow bone pain in children?
Generally,眉 bone pain in children may be caused by eye strain, trauma, keratitis, glaucoma, or migraines.
1. Eye strain: Prolonged reading, watching television, or using mobile phones can lead to eye fatigue in children, which may result in symptoms such as eye pressure, dryness, and accompanying pain in the eyebrow area. Parents are advised to supervise their children closely and encourage reasonable use of their eyes.
2. Trauma: During physical activities, children may experience external impacts that injure the eyebrow region, leading to inflammatory swelling, bruising, and localized pain. Local heat application is recommended; if symptoms are severe, prompt medical evaluation and treatment at a hospital are necessary.
3. Keratitis: Keratitis refers to inflammation of the cornea, usually caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi, or other external factors. When the infection spreads to surrounding tissues of the eye or eyelids, pain or discomfort in the eyebrow area may occur. Treatment may include medications such as methylprednisolone tablets or levofloxacin eye drops, used under a doctor's guidance.
4. Glaucoma: In children with glaucoma, episodes can cause increased intraocular pressure, putting pressure on the optic nerve and resulting in eye pain that may radiate to the eyebrow area. Treatment may involve prescribed eye drops such as carteolol hydrochloride ophthalmic solution or pilocarpine nitrate eye drops. In some cases, early surgical intervention may be necessary.
5. Migraine: Migraines can present as recurrent headaches, including pain localized around the eyebrow region. Medications such as ibuprofen tablets or indomethacin tablets may be used under medical supervision for treatment.
If symptoms persist or worsen, parents should immediately seek medical care for their child.
