Question

What’s the situation when a child has excessive eye crust in the morning?

Answer

Your situation may be caused by excessive liver fire, indicating a problem with the body’s internal Qi and blood regulation, which is not a severe disease. It is suggested to treat with Xiao Chaihu decoction or Xiao Chaihu granules. Considering the symptoms may be viral conjunctivitis, it is recommended to use Acyclovir eye drops, Ribavirin eye drops, and Diflucort eye drops, etc., for treatment. Also, timely cleaning the secretion from the corners of the eyes with a cotton swab can help improve the condition quickly.
