It wasn't a pleasant experience, but I will say the anticipation was worse than the procedure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-bees-had-a-chalazion-in-the-past#post-824104 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 14:26:58 +0000 SAHM0811 824104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@babycanuck: omg! Three years! Hers have lasted a few months at the most, and I thought that was a long time... Yikes! Hope it gets better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-bees-had-a-chalazion-in-the-past#post-824072 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 14:00:32 +0000 babycanuck 824072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll have to try the baby shampoo. I started with hot compresses. This is the second one I had and the first took 3 years to go away. My doctor wanted me to have it removed but there was NO WAY someone was coming at my face with a needle/scalpel and it ended up weeping away on its own. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-bees-had-a-chalazion-in-the-past#post-824065 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 13:54:41 +0000 SAHM0811 824065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DD gets them occassionally :( We do warm compresses when they are bad. She's also needed antibiotic and steroid drops/ointments in the past. To prevent them, we scrub her eyelids with a washcloth and baby shampoo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-bees-had-a-chalazion-in-the-past#post-824058 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 13:52:16 +0000 babycanuck 824058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How did you get rid of it? How long did it stick around? </p>
