The red marks left after the treatment of syringoma are relatively normal, and over time, many marks left after surgery will fade on their own.

After surgery, when scabbing and flaking occur, there are usually some marks. Under the guidance of a doctor, one can choose to apply epidermal growth factor gel to the localized skin to promote skin metabolism, reduce pigmentation, and eliminate the red marks.

For red marks left after syringoma surgery, in addition to topical medications, one can also alleviate them through dietary means.

In terms of diet, consuming more foods rich in Vitamin C and Vitamin E can speed up metabolism, gradually reducing the intensity of the red marks and also maintaining cleanliness and hygiene of the localized skin area.

Can hidradenoma heal itself?

Syringomas are difficult to heal on their own. Syringomas are adenomas that arise from the differentiation of the distal ducts of small sweat glands, often occurring in young women, with puberty potentially worsening the condition. They are commonly symmetrically distributed around the eyelids, but can also appear on the forehead, neck, and chest. The lesions are skin-colored, pale yellow, or brownish-yellow, hemispherical or flat papules that are dense but do not fuse together. Generally, patients with syringomas do not experience any symptoms, and the course of the disease is chronic. Syringomas rarely regress on their own and are considered a type of benign tumor that generally does not require treatment. If necessary, physical therapy methods can be used for treatment.

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.

The difference between syringoma and flat warts

Syringoma and flat warts have significant differences; they are entirely different diseases. Firstly, flat warts are caused by the human papillomavirus and are contagious, while syringoma is an adnexal tumor and is not contagious. Secondly, flat warts are not hereditary, whereas syringomas may have a certain hereditary aspect. Lastly, flat warts often occur on the backs of the hands, face, neck, and other widespread areas, while syringomas are commonly found around the eyes.

The difference between syringoma and flat warts

Syringoma and flat warts are two completely different diseases with significant differences. First, syringoma is a type of hamartoma and belongs to tumors, while flat warts are skin diseases caused by viral infections. Secondly, syringomas often appear symmetrically, primarily around the eyes or on the forehead, and are accompanied by itching symptoms. On the other hand, flat warts usually do not have a symmetrical distribution; they are scattered or densely distributed, and generally do not exhibit itching symptoms.

Post-laser treatment care for syringoma

Syringoma is a type of benign proliferation that mostly occurs around the eyes. After treatment with laser surgery, it is important to prevent recurrence of the condition. Avoid spicy and irritating food, try not to stay up late, and avoid anxiety and stress. Do not use cosmetics around the eyes indiscriminately, especially eye creams or greasy cosmetics, as they can easily lead to recurrence of the condition. After the laser treatment, the local wound mostly heals gradually within about a week. If swelling and redness persist, it may be appropriate to take oral and topical anti-inflammatory medications. Additionally, applying ice can help reduce the swelling more quickly. It is crucial to maintain a proper diet and lifestyle habits to prevent the recurrence of the condition.
