Suggest Treatment For Yellow Eye Discharge
My 19 month old baby is breaking all 4 incisors--she has a runny nose with a hint of yellow in it and now has had some colored eye discharge. History of ear infections but received tubes in May 2012. Recently received flu shot as well. Eye is not pink or puffy. Should I take her to get eye antibiotics in case it is pink eye??

Hi, it is viral respiratory infection affecting the eye (conjunctivitis) and ears (otitis media).
Treatment- give her antihistamines with decongestant . Twice daily for 5 days.
Tobramycin eyedropss 2 droos 3 times daily. Cotrimozole ears drops for ears.
Watch for 5 days with this treatment. If symptoms persists consult your pediatrician and start oral antibiotics.
