Parents are quite cautious about cleaning the area around their babies' eyes, but some babies are prone to excessive eye discharge after catching a cold. Even if parents wipe it and it appears soon, and the baby's eye droppings are relatively yellow, what should be done if the baby has eye droppings when they catch a cold?
1. It is normal for babies to have eye droppings when they catch a cold. Parents need to treat it strictly and pay attention to cleaning the eye droppings around the baby's eyes. It is worth noting that the baby's hands should be cleaned, otherwise the baby will easily scratch the eyes with their hands. If there are bacteria in the hands, they can easily enter the eyes and cause inflammation. When cleaning eye droppings, you can choose some high-quality cotton swabs and gently dip them in some water to gently wipe the baby's eye area.
2.The most fundamental method is to treat a cold. When a baby has a cold, give them plenty of water to replenish their hydration. If the baby doesn't like drinking plain water, parents can also feed them some fruits, such as those they like to eat. In this way, the effect will be better, as it can help relieve the symptoms of internal heat in babies and effectively alleviate their colds. If the baby has a cold for a long time, parents can also take the baby to a regular hospital for treatment and examination. Medication treatment may have better results when necessary.
Parents should not directly remove eye droppings from babies who have caught a cold. They can use a clean towel or cotton swab to clean them. Ventilate the baby indoors and do not let them stay in a dry environment. This can reduce the occurrence of eye droppings, and pay attention to the reasonable diet combination of babies in daily life.
