  Sometimes parents may notice a lot of eye droppings around the corners of their baby's eyes when washing their face, and it can be very difficult for the baby to keep their eyes open.

Does having yellow eye discharge in a baby indicate excessive internal heat1

  Normally, yellow eye discharge in babies is not caused by internal heat, but may be a symptom of conjunctivitis in the eyelids. Usually, babies unconsciously rub their eyes with their hands, and if their little hands are not very hygienic, it is easy for bacteria to enter the eyes, leading to increased secretion in the eyes and symptoms such as eyelid congestion.

  When a baby shows this symptom, parents should promptly clean their baby's waist with a clean towel and use the corners of the towel to wipe the baby's eye droppings. At the same time, parents should also pay attention to observing whether the baby continues to shed tears or has increased eye secretions. Parents should also try to avoid rubbing the baby's eyes with their hands and keep their hands clean and hygienic.

  If the baby's eyelashes grow inward and rub against each other, it will stimulate the baby's eyelid glands, causing them to secrete more liquid, which naturally leads to more eye droppings. This phenomenon will gradually decrease in the baby's eye droppings only after the normal growth of their eyelashes. This requires parents to do a good job in daily care, clean up the eye droppings secreted by their babies in a timely manner, and avoid dry eye droppings.
