Question
What should be done if a child’s inner side of the lower eyelid turns red? Is medical help needed?
Answer
Redness on the inner side of a child’s lower eyelid may be caused by conjunctivitis, dry eye syndrome, or other conditions leading to conjunctival congestion. It is recommended to take the child to a professional medical facility for examination. Generally, active treatment has little impact on the child. However, considering the child’s age, parents should avoid administering medication without medical advice to prevent unnecessary effects. In daily life, it is important to ensure that the child gets enough rest and avoids eating spicy and irritating foods. Prompt medical examination and treatment are crucial for children.
