What are the symptoms of acute dacryoadenitis in infants?
Disease description:
These past couple of days, I've noticed my baby's eyes are constantly red, and they tear up even when not crying. My husband said it might be acute dacryocystitis. What are the common symptoms of this condition?
Symptoms of infant lacrimal gland inflammation commonly include persistent redness, swelling, pain, and excessive tearing in the outer part of the upper eyelid, with a transverse S-shaped drooping of the eyelid margin. This may be accompanied by headache, fever, and general malaise. Continuous tearing is typical, and in severe cases, patients may also experience headaches. It is essential to keep the eyes clean, prevent the baby from rubbing their eyes, and maintain a light,清淡 diet.
