Suggest Cause & Medications For Swollen Eyes In Children
my 5 year old son has fever and cries that his eyes are burning and hurt really bad. He is really cold but sweaty and hot to the touch. They are very red. this is not the first time, in the past the Dr just says it's vital and let it run its course but it seems too frequent. this is the 3rd time in 3 months. could it be something else more serious? Tylenol doesn't seem to help but Advil does for a short time

in high fever burning of eye is normal. it becomes red. dehydration takes place.Hydration is to be maintained. cold sponging and paracetamol syrup is the management. Cause of fever is to be ascertained. Normal investigation like routine blood urine test is to be done.x-ray chest to rule out primarycmplex may be done.
