What should I do if I have conjunctivitis?

Patient's question:

My child is ten months old and has developed conjunctivitis, which is getting worse. What eye drops should I use for him?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, it is not advisable for children to blindly use eye drops, as they can damage the hematopoietic system. It is crucial to stop using them immediately and purchase other ingredients from a pharmacy, checking the composition. Additionally, conjunctivitis can also be viral, so it is best to use eye drops under the guidance of a doctor for more targeted treatment. Be sure to use them separately, with at least a 20-minute interval between each. Use the first one first, then wait 20 minutes before using the other.
