What to do if your baby has redness around the eyes after a fever

Redness around the eyes in babies after a fever is likely to be caused by a number of things. First of all, there may be a rash around the eyes, which is often caused by viral infections, or bacterial infections. It is necessary to choose the appropriate medication to treat the infection, and it is best to check the C-reactive protein as well as the blood count. If there is no elevation of white blood cells and C-reactive protein, it is often a viral infection and can be observed temporarily, sometimes with the use of some antiviral drugs, such as interferon spray. If there is an elevation of white blood cells, there is a possibility of bacterial infection. If there is no allergy to cephalosporins, pediatric cefixime granules can be taken orally for treatment. Secondly, the redness around the eyes may be irritated by objects. At this time, do not let the child touch the redder place, also do not use hot water to wash the area, often after 2-3 days, the redness of the eyes can recover by itself. If the allergy occurs again, there may be elevated eosinophils in the blood count, and it is better to use cetirizine hydrochloride or dicloretadine for treatment.
