Patient's question:
A newborn was found to have a blue lump in the right corner of the eye at birth, and the right eye was difficult to open on the right side. The doctor said it was normal, but the examination showed bacteria. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Bacterial culture is indeed the preferred method for diagnosing bacterial infections. As long as the results of the bacterial culture are accurate, taking medication regularly under the guidance of a doctor should lead to a quick recovery. Randomly using antibiotics is not possible. Children are still young. If antibiotics are overused, it is not only harmful to the recovery of the disease but also leads to bacterial resistance. It can easily cause diarrhea (intestinal flora imbalance). Therefore, it is recommended: Regular and correct bacterial culture, and the proper use of antibiotics based on treatment results.
