Syringoma is caused by localized growth and development of sweat glands, leading to a benign proliferation which is substantive rather than inflammatory. Therefore, erythromycin ointment is ineffective in treating syringoma. Currently, a common treatment for syringoma is to use laser ablation to remove the tumors. However, many patients may experience recurrence and require multiple treatments for complete removal. The occurrence of syringoma in some patients may be related to family genetics, which can lead to frequent recurrences that may be difficult to completely eliminate. Therefore, it is advisable to maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle, avoid spicy and irritant foods, and avoid applying greasy cosmetics around the eyes, as these can block pores or sweat glands.

Will sweat gland tumors recur?

The recurrence rate of syringoma is relatively high, as this condition is mainly related to familial genetics or local sweat gland development, which are determined by one's constitution or genes. The most common treatment method is local laser treatment. In severe cases, it may also be addressed with surgical intervention. However, there is no definitive solution to prevent recurrence; treatment must be administered anew when syringomas reappear. It is important to maintain proper dietary and lifestyle habits, avoiding spicy and irritating foods, and refraining from staying up late. Particularly in areas prone to outbreaks, one should avoid applying cosmetics that can clog pores and obstruct sweat secretion. Regular exercise can help strengthen the immune system and potentially reduce the recurrence of this condition.

Can applying garlic treat syringoma?

Applying garlic cannot achieve the purpose of treating syringoma. First, it is important to understand what syringoma is. Syringoma is a disease that occurs due to the development of small sweat gland ducts within the epidermis. It is generally considered a benign tumor that does not turn malignant and can be left untreated. This disease can persist for a long time after manifestation, as it is a chronic condition. Thus, even if you attempt to treat it, complete eradication is not feasible. Local applications of home remedies like garlic or ginger juice are ineffective, and the same applies for regular ointments. Currently, the best method of treatment is using carbon dioxide laser. The method of applying garlic lacks scientific basis and does not achieve therapeutic effects.

Can syringoma be removed by laser?

Currently, the most common method for treating syringoma is using laser for direct removal. Syringoma is generally related to familial inheritance or local abnormal development of sweat ducts. Often eating spicy and stimulating foods, or using poor-quality eye creams or cosmetics can also lead to the occurrence of syringomas. The most common treatment still involves direct removal with a laser, followed by the application of medications to repair the wound. This helps prevent the condition from recurring. However, there is currently no way to completely eradicate syringomas to achieve a one-time, non-recurrent treatment. After treatment, it is advisable to exercise more and sweat more to increase the secretion of sweat. Avoid using poor-quality cosmetics topically to prevent clogging and recurrence of the condition, and strengthen your exercise regime to enhance immunity.

How to treat hidrocystomas around the eyes?

Syringomas around the eyes are mostly related to one's endocrine system or local sweat gland activity in that area, and in some cases, may be due to genetic inheritance. Once this condition appears, the most common treatment method is to visit a dermatology department at a reputable hospital and have them removed with a laser. Common oral and topical medications are generally ineffective and should be avoided. To prevent recurrence after recovery, it is advised to avoid using makeup, particularly greasy eye creams or cosmetics around the eyes. Regular exercise, which promotes sweating, frequent bathing, maintaining a cheerful mood, avoiding spicy or irritating foods, and not staying up late are also recommended.
