The causes of eye boogers in two-year-olds usually include upper respiratory tract infection, allergic rhinitis and conjunctivitis.
1. Upper respiratory tract infection: If a two-year-old child is invaded by pathogens such as bacteria or viruses, it may cause upper respiratory tract infection, and the clinical symptoms may be manifested as coughing, runny nose and nasal congestion, etc. Moreover, since the upper respiratory tract and the eye are located close to each other, the eye may be infected, which may lead to an increase in the amount of eye boogers.
2. Allergic rhinitis: If a two-year-old child suffers from allergic rhinitis, its clinical symptoms can be manifested as runny nose, nasal congestion, etc., in which the nasal congestion can also cause the blockage of the nasolacrimal ducts, which leads to an increase in eye boogers.
3. Conjunctivitis: If a two-year-old child is affected by bacterial infection or ultraviolet stimulation and other factors, can lead to the occurrence of conjunctivitis, and then the eye secretion increase caused by more eye boogers.
If a two-year-old’s eye discharge is abnormal, you need to seek medical treatment as soon as you find it.
