There is no such thing as “swollen eyes and face are a sign of a disease”. Swollen eyes and face may indicate nephrotic syndrome, atopic dermatitis, cirrhosis of the liver and other diseases.
1. Nephrotic syndrome: In the early stage of nephrotic syndrome, kidney function will be abnormal, glomerular filtration rate will be reduced, which will lead to poor excretion of water in the body, and then the excess water will be accumulated in the loose parts of the body, which will lead to the appearance of swollen eyes and face. Therefore, swollen eyes and face may indicate the appearance of nephrotic syndrome.
2. Allergic dermatitis: In the early stage of allergic dermatitis, the body will have allergic symptoms, making the eyes swollen and face swollen. Therefore, swollen eyes and face may also indicate atopic dermatitis.
3. Cirrhosis: When you have cirrhosis of the liver, the function of the liver will change, which may lead to a decrease in the synthesis of plasma albumin, water retention in the body, resulting in the appearance of swollen eyes and face. Therefore, swollen eyes and swollen face suggest the possibility of cirrhosis.
When the symptoms of swollen eyes and face cannot be relieved by resting, it is recommended to go to the hospital to find out the cause of the disease and follow the doctor’s instructions to receive targeted treatment.
