Hi, Doctor. I Am Having 3-4 Chalazions On Both My
Question: Hi, doctor. I am having 3-4 chalazions on both my eyes. Had one on my right eye corner recently removed surgically but a small swelling is still there. Initially, I had a surgery done on my left eyelid upper lump but after one week it retained and left a smaller chalazion. There are 2 lumps on my lower and upper eyelid on the left eye. I am a model so it is very important for me to get rid of these fast since it’s becoming a problem for me in my work and I don’t want surgeries again.
Will putting garlic first thing in the morning on the left chalazions help?
I am also trying the rice sock compress.

Sorry, by mistake I gave a wrong point.
It will be “Yes” in “Have you visited doctors before?”

Brief Answer:
We have to find out the reason for recurrent chalazions first dear
Detailed Answer:
Hey thanks for the question dear . We have to first find out why are you getting recurrent chalazions . They can occur if a person has unocrrected spectacle number or kid gland inflammation or allergy leading to frequent rubbing of eyelids and also in case of diabetes . Please get yourself checked for the same . Secondly I am sorry but rubbing garlic or compression doesn’t help in chalazion and they need to be incised sooner or later . Hope my answer helps you . Regards .

Brief Answer:
They make a long long time to naturally disappear or might not at all
Detailed Answer:
Hey thanks for the question . They may take a long long time to be removed naturally or heal of their own and that might also still result in a residual small swelling so it is always better to incise. A steroid injection can be given also in recurrent cases . You may work with your doctors for the same . Hope my answers help . Regards

Hi Doctor.
Okay I will try to find that out but the doctors said that it shouldn’t be because of my spectacle power since then I would have problems in seeing correctly, which I am not having as such. Although I do plan on changing the lens for my safety.
They said it can be because of make up or dandruff or oily acne-prone skin.
Secondly, is there no other way except incision? :(
Because even after incision, a bit of swelling remains and I want my eyelids to go back to normal and being flat. So, is there no other way that they can cure NATURALLY?
