If a newborn baby has a pus-filled eye, it can be caused by various reasons, including infection or blockage of the tear ducts. In any case, it is important to consult a doctor to get an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment. If the doctor recommends tetracycline ointment, follow his instructions for its use. Usually, the ointment is applied to the lower eyelid, carefully spreading it over the entire surface of the eye. It is important to remember hand hygiene before and after the procedure to avoid infection. Additionally, you can use clean cotton pads moistened with warm water to thoroughly clean the corner of the eye and remove pus discharge. It is important to be very careful and gentle to avoid damaging the eye or further infecting it. It is not recommended to use ointments or drops without prior consultation with a doctor, as improper treatment can worsen the problem. If the child's condition worsens or other symptoms appear, be sure to consult a doctor.

Show it to a surgeon or at least to your pediatric neonatologist, it's possible that the tear duct is blocked. For now, you can carefully massage and rinse with boiled water. There are surely videos on YouTube on how to do this.

Tetracycline is applied immediately after birth. And now you need to see an ophthalmologist. Do not self-medicate with such little ones. If the tear duct is blocked, both massage and antibiotics are needed.

Brew strong tea and wipe the nose with a cotton swab.

There is Ophthalmoferon eye drops which can be used from birth, but of course it is better to consult a doctor.
