conjuntavitis in a 3year old

[lou4]

hi my son has conjutavitis and he is 3 does any one know if there is anything i can give him

[redcrx]

has this been diagnosed by your GP, if so have they given you anything for it?

All i would suggest is that you gently wash his eyes as often as you can with cool boiled salty water. Make sure you use seperate cotton wool balls (or whatever you use) for each eye so as not to reinfect them.

If youve not seen a GP then perhaps ask your local pharmacist for advice on what may be suitable

Agree with Redcryx - and yes, the pharmacist'll be able to give you something for it.

Oops! Sorry - somehow got a "y" in your name there!!!! x

you can get chloramphenicol drops or cream from the pharmacist

theres an old saying about using used tea bags and i've got to admit it works on my girls. one of them wears glasses and gets conjuntavitus quite often so i wash the tea bags (one for each eye) with warm water and squeeze them into her eyes then wipe away the tea from around her eyes so it doesn't stain her skin.
you could try this.
