I don’t have anything sad, but why do I often cry more than usual? [사진=게티이미지뱅크]

Tears are flowing… , Do you know that there are surprisingly many causes of tears that even actresses with heartbreak can’t face? Apart from moist eyes, if tears are dripping all the time, it also means that there is some problem. Of course, if a foreign substance such as dust or eyelashes enters the eye, tears naturally come out. It is used to flush out foreign objects in the eye. Even things so small that we can’t see them trigger this reaction.

The reason why I often cry more than usual even though there is nothing sad is introduced in the US health information media ‘WebMD’.

dry eyes = Dry eyes can occur when tears dry too quickly or when the components of tears, such as oil, water, and mucus, are out of balance. The causes range from windy weather to medical conditions. Regardless of the cause, our eyes respond by producing more tears.

conjunctivitis = Conjunctivitis is a common cause of watery eyes in both children and adults. Conjunctivitis can make your eyes red and feel itchy and stuffy, like sand in them. Bacterial or viral infection is the most common cause. If it’s a bacterial infection, you may need antibiotic eye drops.

allergy = Watery eyes and itchy eyes are often accompanied by coughing, runny nose, and other typical allergy symptoms. Of course, it is also possible that only eye allergies occur. Using allergy medications or eye drops, or avoiding triggers such as pollen, mold, and pet dander can help.

blocked tear ducts = Tears are produced in the lacrimal gland, spread across the surface of the eye, and drained through the tear duct. When the tear duct is blocked, tears cannot drain and accumulate in the eye. There are many causes, including infection, injury, and aging.

eyelid problem = Eyelids are like windshield wipers on a car. When you blink, your eyelids spread tears all over your eye and sweep away excess moisture. But sometimes there are problems with this process. Entropion is a condition in which the eyelid margins are rolled inward, causing the eyelashes to irritate the ocular surface. Or, if you have ectropion, in which the eyelids are turned outward and the edges of the eyelids do not touch the eyeball, the eyelids cannot wipe the entire eye when blinking. Both can cause watery eyes.

scratch on the eye = Dust, sand, contact lenses, etc. can scratch the cornea. This can cause watery eyes, pain, redness, and sensitivity to light. It usually heals in a day or two, but it’s important to see a doctor if you don’t know if you have a corneal abrasion. Treatment may be needed to prevent infection.

sty Styes can also cause watery eyes, although other symptoms are usually more obvious, such as swelling, redness, and painful lumps along the edge of the eyelid. If it is caused by bacteria, it will most likely go away on its own within a few days. When a sty appears, you should just leave it there and not try to pop it. Applying a warm washcloth to your eyes can relieve the pain.

eyelash problem = If the eyelashes grow inside instead of outside, they can rub against the eye and damage the cornea. This condition is called trichiasis and can be caused by infection or injury.

Blepharitis = Blepharitis is an inflammation of the eyelids and eyelid rim. The eyes may be itchy, watery, red, itchy, and crusted. Many things can cause it, including infections, rosacea, and allergies.

Oil gland problem = The meibomian glands at the edges of the eyelids produce oil that helps keep the eyes healthy. This oil prevents the eyes from drying out too quickly and creates a barrier that keeps the tears where they are needed. However, if the oil glands are blocked and not enough oil is produced, the eyes are irritated and tears form. Applying warm compresses to the eyes may help.
