If your baby is constantly teary-eyed, it is likely that he or she has a congenital tear duct obstruction. Before using surgical methods to unblock the tear ducts, it is usually required to do tear massage to drain the large amount of purulent secretions from the tear sac before surgery can be performed, so the parents of the child should learn how to massage the tear ducts. There are two ways to massage the tear duct: First, if the baby has purulent discharge inside the eye, the parents can use the thumb or index finger to compress the tear sac, where is the tear sac? Probably at the root of the baby’s nose and the central part of the inner canthus, press down and apply some pressure, the baby’s eyes will have a part of the pus flow out, then, wipe the baby clean and point antibiotic eye drops. There is another technique, also in this position, but the difference is that the pressure is applied downwards. This pressure should be applied with some force, and by pressing, it is hoped that the membrane at the lower end of the nasolacrimal duct will be flushed out. How many times a day is the massage? At home, generally is three to four times a day massage on the line, each time press two or three times, if there is pus, after pressing the eyes, and then repeat the above action, until there is no pus and then order medicine. Before massage, the operator needs to wash his hands, the nails will be trimmed round and smooth, to avoid damage to the child’s skin. If the baby does not cooperate, it is recommended that the mother can do it while breastfeeding and reduce the movement of the child’s head. If necessary, some need to fix the head.
