Suggest Treatment For Fever And Yellow Discharge From Eyes
My 16 month old has been running 101-103 degree temps for 2 nights now. Temps came back if I did not alternate tylenol and motrine every 4 hours today. Her nose is running non-stop and today the mucus is yellow. Tonight there was yellow discharge coming from her eyes when she cried. Should I take her in or wait till morning? The E.R. is full of people who could make her sicker.

HI, kindly clean babies eyes with clean cotton soaked in normal clean water, from middle to side of eye corner, atleast every 4 th hour. Also continue management of fever the way you are doing presently. and also sponge the baby top to bottom with each fever spike. Keep the baby well hydrated too. This is for time being, You need to visit the pediatrician any ways
