My 6 year old daughter ran into someone carrying a basket a week ago and bruised the area around her eye she also had a cut going right to the corner of the eye. A few days later her eye became blood shot and gunky, the G.P said it was likely she had scratched it and this had caused infection he prescribed antibiotic drops for infection and said they should kick in withint 24/28 hours, if they didnt work it was likely that something else was wrong but he didn t say what. The antibiotcs have not improved things, she now also has a white bump on her eye ball as well as it being bloodshot.
Hello dear. What you have Tod seems to be conjunctival hemorrhage due to something that has hit the eye, and it will settle on its own, you need not worry, it will take some time but will heal on its own. I didn't understand the white bump?is it a swelling over eyelid?if yes then it will heal on its own too. You need not worry. Hope it will help :-)wishing your child good health.
