What Could Cause Redness In Eyes And Dry Spots On Face?
I took my 9 month old son swimming for the first time at a water park. I put sunscreen on his face. He woke up this morning with red eyes and dry spots on his face. The swelling has gotten better through out the day but is still present. Is this from the water or the sunscreen?

Hello
This is more likely from the chlorine in the water rather than from the sunscreen.
Nothing too serious and he's too young to recommend benadryl unless a doctor sees him and recommends that, but this should resolve in another day or two
