  • Tears are created in the lacrimal gland and flow across the eye. They drain out through tiny holes, called puncta, on the inside corners of your eyes, near the nose. If the drainage system is blocked, the eye can be watery and irritated. Blocked tear ducts can also cause ongoing eye infections.

    I waking up today and it hurt around that area and until my cheek's bone area. My sis is a doctor, and she said to massage it. It hurts so bad. Yes, the tears flowing out.

    Age, Infection, Injury .Don't forget clogging !!! The easy natural remedy is to take a q tip wet with clean water and wipe the tear ducts. Good bye dry eyes !!! Many videos on this

    Last time I had this problem was about 10 years ago. I would hold my nose and apply pressure and tears would squirt up into my eye. I finally got desperate and applied more and more pressure until some milky white stuff came out and then I started seeing little air bubbles bubbling up in the corner of my eye. I didn't have any more problem after that.
    I'm having the issue again but the same solution wont work.

      @@yourcute4268 had the issue for a month, got an eye infection, the drops cleared the infection but it kept coming back. Finally one day I was in the car and sneezed or something and a chunk of something came out of my eye and my eye was super watery for about 15 minutes and then it's been fine ever since.

      I did the same, it unblocked the tear duct but caused an infection. How do you deal with that?

    I think I may have a mild infection in it so I splash dial soap in that corner of my eye and tilt my head so it can get in there 😂

      Warm flannel or face cloth soaked in water wring it out ( NOT hot water ) place over the eye and nose area, leave a few seconds each side, then gently massage the are with finger to loosen the blockage, it gives temporary relief.
      I do this my eyes feel like I cleaned the lenses and can see clearly .
      Hope this helps .

      I'm mo doctor but i know only this: Have a wet towel and it must not be hot water but something in between cold and hot. Place the wet towel on your nose and your eye and do it for a couple of seconds, and then do the same to the other side. Search it because you have Google and there is more helpful information. In hopes you recover as fast as you can.
      This was Marin and all good for you. 😄😁😄
