Patient's question:
My child was born on May 23, 2013. About four or five days after birth, one eye had a little eye discharge, and later, both eyes had it when I was discharged from the hospital. Could you please ask the doctor what causes infants to frequently have eye discharge?Doctor's answer:
It could be due to a heat imbalance. You might not be breastfeeding, right? If it's breast milk, it's usually not an issue. Besides heat imbalance, inflammation can also cause excessive discharge. Give the baby more warm water to drink. Also, avoid eating too hot foods. The child is troubled by newborn diseases, so parents must take the child to a doctor immediately for treatment and avoid using small ads for medication. Rational medication is necessary. For parents, it's important to promptly monitor the child's condition and do their best to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
