Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,

This suggests conjunctivitis, which will respond to antibiotic drops like Tobramycin applied for 5 days. If significant swelling and inflammation is there, kindly get it examined with your pediatrician

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam T. K., Pediatrician
