Patient's question:
What is the reason why a 1-month-old baby always cries with tears in winter? At home, it's a bit better, but it gets severe once they go outside. Before, the hospital prescribed eye drops, which worked for a few days and then improved for several months. Could it be a blocked tear duct?Doctor's answer:
A child crying may be due to narrowed tear ducts, or it could be caused by ingrown eyelashes, or it might be a result of cold weather exposure. It is necessary to visit a hospital for a specific diagnosis. If there is a suspicion of blocked tear ducts, a tear duct flush test should be performed to confirm. First, factors such as inflammation, ingrown eyelashes, and cold air exposure should be ruled out. The above suggestions are for the question "Why does a two-month-old baby always cry in winter?" and it is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
