Pink eye, what can you do for it?

by lillkatherynComment Published at 16:5316:534 comments4 comments37 Visits37 VisitsReport

My babies just got pink eye, conjuctivitis.  My girl got rid of it in a matter of days, but my son still has it a bit.  Something I found to really help, it's better then the ointment is....Breat Milk.  Yeah, I heard about it long time ago, and hubby told me the other day to do it.  So I did, the poor boy screamed while I cleaned his eyes and squeezed a few drops over each eye.  When he opened the milk went in and within hours the redness was gone and the goop as too.  His eyes looked really well.  Though I only did it a couple of times, it made a big difference!!  So if you're babies ever have pink eye try it!

Hi there,a good home remedy for conjunctivitus (never heard of pink eye)is cold black tea.Make some tea up and let it cool down a little until warm.then with cotton wool wipe the eye from the inside out using a different piece of cotton wool wipe it out about 3 or four time and repeat evey 3 or 4 hrs.Good luck.

I also did use the breast milk trick when my children were babies.My daughter had a block tear duct i was told to use the breast milk for that too.

yes, Ive used it a few times, works nicely though I felt a bit bad coz she was not pleased with me - like "mummy, my mouth is down a bit lower, you're getting it WRONG!"
