Suggest Treatment For Conjunctivitis

I was diagnosed with conjunctivitis yesterday, by the evening, it was in both eyes and original eye was nearly swollen shut. I have been using Polytrim since yesterday. Doctor mentioned if reddest part of eye changed to being around cornea to go to ER. Through the day, the swelling has reduced, irritation and discharge have not changed, but redness has reached edge of cornea. White part of eyes are primarily the same color red throughout now. Continue drops, or head to ER?

Please continue eye drops for few more days. You are improving so no need to visit ER. If condition does not improve or get worsened, you should rush to ER.
