The medical term used to describe a retracted stoma is "retraction" and it refers to the movement of the upper eyelids downward over the upper eyelids, often accompanied by红肿 and itching. This condition occurs when the epidermal surface of the eyelids becomes overly sensitive and begins to retract, leading to increased dryness, scaling, crust formation, and potentially ulceration.
Symptoms
The most common symptoms associated with a retracted stoma include红肿, itching, increased dryness, scaling, crust formation, and the possibility of ulceration. These symptoms can vary in intensity and may come and go over time.
Risk factors
The exact cause of retracted stomas is not fully understood, but certain factors may increase the risk. These include dry eye syndrome, exposure to wind and cold weather, prolonged use of corticosteroids or antihistamines, and underlying medical conditions such as eczema or psoriasis.
