Stye<\/span><\/b> is a disease caused by inflammation in the oil glands on the eyelid. Inflammation of the tear glands located on the eyelid, responsible for oil secretion, is called <\/span>a stye<\/span><\/b> . <\/span>Stye<\/span><\/strong> , or as it is popularly known, <\/span>dog’s elbow,<\/span><\/b> is a red-looking lump that looks like a boil or a pimple, appearing in areas close to the edge of the eyelid. It generally has a painful course.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why Does Stye Appear?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Stye<\/span><\/b> is a disease caused by infection in the oil glands of the eyelid. These infections are known to be largely bacterial in origin. Inflammation in the sebaceous glands may develop due to various reasons. The most well-known of these reasons is the transfer of bacteria from external environments to the eye area through contact of hands with eyes.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition; Using contact lenses without complying with hygiene rules or not removing make-up before going to sleep at night are among the most common causes of stye formation. Other <\/span>causes of styes<\/span><\/b> are known as dandruff formation or oil accumulation at the base of the eyelashes. Additionally, stye formation is more common in individuals with diseases such as blepharitis. If you have this type of condition, your eyelid is more prone to <\/span>stye<\/span><\/strong> formation. Therefore, you need to take extra care.<\/span><\/p>\n

Types of Styes<\/span><\/h2>\n

Stye types<\/span><\/b> are examined under two different headings: internal and external. While <\/span>the inner stye<\/span><\/b> appears on the upper part of the eyelid, closer to the inner side, <\/span>the outer stye<\/span><\/b> forms at the base of the eyelashes. External stye, which is more common than internal stye, is generally seen in the eyelash follicle, but is occasionally seen in the sebaceous gland.<\/span><\/p>\n

Internal styes generally begin to form in the oil gland located on the eyelid. This type of stye, which grows over time, has a more painful process than external styes.<\/span><\/p>\n

What are the symptoms of a stye?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Stye symptoms<\/span><\/b> attract attention as a matter of curiosity for many people. The most important symptom of stye disease is known as swelling of the eyelid.<\/span><\/p>\n

Infection occurs in the area where a stye occurs, just like a pimple. For this reason, a yellowish spot may appear on the stye, and pus may flow from the stye. In addition, <\/span>dog elbow symptoms<\/span><\/b> can be listed as follows;<\/span><\/p>\n
