Dear Yogesh Kumar ji,

Aapke 3 mahine ke bachche ke aankhon se lagataar paani aana, kichaad (discharge) aur laalima hona newborn eye infection ya nas band (nasolacrimal duct blockage) ka sanket ho sakta hai. Yeh condition common hai, lekin proper diagnosis aur timely treatment bahut zaruri hai.

Sambhavit Karan

• Nasolacrimal duct blockage: Aankhon se naak tak paani jaane wali nali band hoti hai

• Eye infection (conjunctivitis): Bacteria ya virus ke karan sujan aur discharge

• Allergy ya irritation bhi wajah ho sakti hai

Treatment Options

• Pehle paediatric ophthalmologist se consult zaruri hai

• Warm massage nas ke area par din mein 3–4 baar ki jati hai agar blockage ho

• Antibiotic eye drops agar infection ho

• 1 saal tak agar nas ka rasta khul nahi raha ho to probing surgery ki ja sakti hai

HexaHealth Aapki Kaise Madad Karega

• Aapke sheher ya paas ke child eye specialist se consult book karwa sakte hain

• Tests aur treatment ke liye options batayenge

• Consultation se lekar surgery tak complete support provide karenge

Aap humein batayein ki aapka exact location kya hai — hum aapko nearest hospital ya doctor tak turant connect karenge jahan bachche ka treatment shuru ho sake. Early diagnosis se bachcha theek ho sakta hai.
