Question

Can traditional Chinese medicine cure a cherry eye in a two-week-old baby?

Answer

A two-week-old baby suffering from cherry eye may be cured with traditional Chinese medicine under certain conditions. However, if the cherry eye is large, it may require surgical removal to avoid putting pressure on the eye and increasing the risk of infection. For smaller cherry eyes, one can try using cooling and detoxifying Chinese medicine, combined with cold compresses and symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication. If the cherry eye is large, it is recommended to undergo surgery as soon as possible.
