Should conjunctivitis be cold and hot?

Conjunctivitis patients need to choose between cold and hot compresses depending on the cause and symptoms.

Conjunctivitis is a common eye disease that can be caused by bacteria, viruses, allergic reactions, or other causes. Symptoms of conjunctivitis include redness, pain, tears, blurred vision, etc. Cold compresses can reduce the pain and redness caused by conjunctivitis, especially during acute episodes of inflammation. Apply ice or cold towels to closed eyes for 15-20 minutes at a time, several times a day. Hot compresses can help relieve dryness and irritation caused by conjunctivitis. Wet a towel with warm water, wring it out and apply it to closed eyes for 15-20 minutes several times a day. Hot compresses also help soften meibomian oil and promote oil drainage, thus relieving dry eyes.
