Eight-month-old baby has yellow-green eye discharge in the right eye

Patient's question:

Feces are abundant, yellow-green in color, lower eyelids are very red, and the baby often rubs his eyes. What kind of assistance is needed: Hello, do you need eye drops for inflammation? Also, is there an infant eye ointment called "Tobradex"? How effective is it?...

Doctor's answer:

In this case, it is caused by internal heat. Taking many heat-clearing and detoxifying medications, such as Qingkailing and Banlangen, is recommended. Advice: Sometimes it is caused by acute conjunctivitis. Check for symptoms of redness and swelling, tears, indicating inflammation. In such cases, it is necessary to take many antibiotic medications. For both of these situations, the baby can use chloramphenicol or rifampicin eye drops, one drop every 4 hours, with 1-2 drops per time. It is best to have an experienced doctor examine the baby.
