Hello,
Infective causes like yeast must be ruled out. A swab tear and urine routine must be done and antibiotics may be started in case of infection. Nothing much to worry and most cases respond well to antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
