What Could Bloodshot In Eyes Suggest?

My 4 year old son has recently had a mild cold (mucus was clear, turned green for day or so). He seems fine now, and has not had a runny nose. However, I noticed one of his eyes is bloodshot this afternoon. Is this something I need to have checked out considering his recent cold?
