Guest guest Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 My son Scot went to bed last night with a stuffy nose (the green snot variety). He woke up this morning and now in addition to the stuffy nose, his one eye is pink, bloodshot, and looks irritated. What can be done for this? I do not wish to call my doctor. Thanks!

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 My son Matt just went through this. His eye kept getting puss in it and a cough. Then he gave it to my daughter me and my wife. We did not take him to the doctors but we did take my daughter (20 Months old) it is some kind of bacteria infection and he put her on antibiotics and she is better now. my son the same but it took 2 weeks for his to go away. The pussy eyes lasted about 3-4 days. the cough and stuffy nose about 1/12 weeks. -------Matt's DAD At 09:18 AM 5/16/2004, you wrote: >My son Scot went to bed last night with a stuffy nose (the green >snot variety).

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 I'm not seeing any puss in Scot's eye, it's just pink and irritated. I really don't want to give Scot antibiotics unless it's absolutely necessary...he just doesn't tolerate it very well. Bu thank you for your suggestion. I will keep an eye out for pus.

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 We did not give Matt any antibiotics either just our daughter. Matt is ASD and we know what it does to their gut so we avoid it at all cost. The Puss started about 2 days after the eyes got red. First the left eye then the right eye. In the morning is when it was the worst aftre sleeping all night it was all dried up on his eyelashes at first we thought he had pink eye but it didn't get any worse. ------Matt's DADS At 10:14 AM 5/16/2004, you wrote: >I'm not seeing any puss in Scot's eye, it's just pink and irritated.
