Some people say “left eye jump wealth, right eye jump disaster”, this has no scientific basis? In fact, is it really so? Here’s what the experts say! This episode of the show features Chen Guoqiang of the Department of Neurosurgery at the Aviation General Hospital of China Medical University, with the topic of eyelid jumping out of the health alarm, mainly introducing physiological eyelid jumping, pathological eyelid jumping, cerebral arteriosclerosis, brain tumors, facial spasms, etc. The video is available online and can be viewed on the Internet. The following is the online viewing of the video and the main content of the introduction: it is understood that the reasons that usually cause eyelid jumping in life, including overwork, nervousness, the eye itself or improper use of the eye disease, as well as traumatic injury, etc., these factors can stimulate the eye nerves, leading to muscle contraction, and then it will cause the muscle jumping. Physiological eyelid jumping is usually mild, if it is overworked, it will be fine after resting, even if there is inflammation and other causes are all relieved by treatment. The cause of eyelid jumping after facial muscle spasm is in the brain, it is very difficult to heal itself, and the development trend is progressive aggravation. Eyelid jumping is divided into physiological and pathological. Physiological eyelid jumping, which many people have experienced, is transient and intermittent, with a short duration, often only a few seconds, and the degree of jumping is not serious. Mostly it is caused by insufficient rest, fatigue or eating stimulating foods and medicines. This kind of eyelid jumping does not affect your health, and has nothing to do with misfortune. It does not need medical treatment, if necessary, you only need to close your eyes and rest for a while, gently massage with your hands in the throbbing point, or hot compresses, a little attention to diet, will automatically disappear. Pathological causes of eyelid jumping, generally long duration, blinking amplitude, for a pathological manifestation, mostly in the elderly with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease. Due to the hardening and distortion of the blood vessels in the brainstem, the facial nerve, which innervates the movement of the eyelid muscles, is compressed by the blood vessels and produces persistent abnormal nerve excitation, resulting in non-stop contraction of the muscles and incessant blinking of the eyes, which is a form of blepharospasm that is very difficult to be cured on its own. In more serious cases, if the disease site is in the basal ganglia, the spasm will spread to the mouth, tongue and chin. In this case, the patient not only has a constant blinking behavior, but also accompanied by facial muscle twitching, which is called facial muscle spasm. Blepharospasm and facial muscle spasm, is a kind of director of dystonia disease, more difficult to self-healing. In the program, experts will teach you how to distinguish physiological eye jumps and pathological eye jumps. Experts suggest that physiological eye jumps can be relieved by hot compresses, eye massages, and less exposure to stimulating and excitatory foods; while pathologic eye jumps must be treated as soon as possible to avoid delaying the condition.
