Syringoma is a type of benign proliferation, mostly growing around the eyes, and can also appear on the vulva. This disease is related to poor local sweating, use of poor-quality cosmetics, and some are also linked with endocrine functions or emotional states and personal temperament. The most common treatment is to directly remove it using laser, usually one to two sessions can eradicate it completely. Milia typically appear as white, millet-sized granules on the face, related to the secretion from one's own epidermal sebaceous glands. The most common treatment involves directly removing them with a needle. These two conditions are quite different from each other.

Is syringoma related to sweating?

Syringoma has little to do with sweating. Syringoma, also known as eccrine acrospiroma or eccrine hidrocystoma, is a type of small sweat gland tumor that differentiates towards sweat ducts. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. During sweating, due to obstructed sweat flow, the syringoma, or the tumor mass, may increase in size. If syringoma appears, it may not require treatment. If it is considered cosmetically undesirable, treatment options include using carbon dioxide laser or cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen. With the occurrence of syringoma, it is advisable to avoid consuming excessively greasy foods and spicy, irritating foods in the diet. While syringoma is not significantly related to sweating, it is somewhat associated with frequent staying up late and irregular life routines.

What is the best treatment for syringoma?

The most common treatment for syringoma is still to remove them directly with laser or ionization; there are no very effective drugs for this condition, and both oral and topical medications are essentially ineffective against syringoma. It is recommended to treat syringoma as soon as it is diagnosed, as it may grow larger and increase in number if left untreated. During treatment, it is important to exercise regularly, strengthen immunity, avoid spicy and stimulating foods, try not to stay up late, maintain a good mood, and avoid getting angry. After recovery, it is also important to pay long-term attention to diet and regular living habits to prevent recurrence. During the treatment period, care should be taken to protect the local wound to prevent scarring.

How to treat hidrocystomas around the eyes?

Syringomas around the eyes are mostly related to one's endocrine system or local sweat gland activity in that area, and in some cases, may be due to genetic inheritance. Once this condition appears, the most common treatment method is to visit a dermatology department at a reputable hospital and have them removed with a laser. Common oral and topical medications are generally ineffective and should be avoided. To prevent recurrence after recovery, it is advised to avoid using makeup, particularly greasy eye creams or cosmetics around the eyes. Regular exercise, which promotes sweating, frequent bathing, maintaining a cheerful mood, avoiding spicy or irritating foods, and not staying up late are also recommended.

Can applying garlic treat syringoma?

Applying garlic cannot achieve the purpose of treating syringoma. First, it is important to understand what syringoma is. Syringoma is a disease that occurs due to the development of small sweat gland ducts within the epidermis. It is generally considered a benign tumor that does not turn malignant and can be left untreated. This disease can persist for a long time after manifestation, as it is a chronic condition. Thus, even if you attempt to treat it, complete eradication is not feasible. Local applications of home remedies like garlic or ginger juice are ineffective, and the same applies for regular ointments. Currently, the best method of treatment is using carbon dioxide laser. The method of applying garlic lacks scientific basis and does not achieve therapeutic effects.
