Seeking Help for Son's Infected Eye Issues
My son started got a fever round 2 weeks ago and the day before the inner corner of his upper eyelid was a bit swollen actually the area under the eyebrows, not the actual lid! He started scratching his eyes and I saw some crust in the morning. Washed his face and eyes and thought it would be ok. His eyes turned a bit red, but that got better in a day or so. The discharge got more watery over the next couple of days although the upper lid swelling subsided. Hi was a bit puffy under too, but not too bad. The discharge was slimey and turned to crust quickly. We are out and about a lot as I am a single mum, I cannot leave him alone and he did not see to have so much discomfort besides the itching. The eyes werent red anymore either..I cleaned up the puss and crust and thought it would be ok. He still was a bit puffy under the eyes and everything seemed to point at conjuctivitis (disharge, crust, itchy) so I started washing with apple cider vineger highly dilluted, then he developed tiny, tiny bumps under his eyes and now more swollen UNDER the left eye, with a little white pimple in the corner. Tried colloidal silver and his discharge lessened, still swollen under the eye the day after, with that white pimple on the swelling and tiny, tiny spots. No pain, not even itching anymore, not complaining at all, whatsoever...
Went to see a dr (just in passing, not an oftamologist) and she recommended an antibiotics or penicilin cream (tobrex) and yesterday, although the sweling was a bit smaller under the eye, I put the cream on. This morning he wakes up puffy under the OTHER eye as well, red along the lower eyelashes, and some swelling under the eyebrows, again! There is some crust, not watery anymore - just a light, light crust. I cleaned it up - but now I am suuper scared putting anythung in his eyes, as everything seems to come some new complication! This does not seem as conjuctivitis anymore as there is no disharge, but then why the swellig under the eye, wth is that pimple, why did the under eye swelling suddenly start in the other eye and why does it swell under the eyebrows above the inner corner of the eye?
I know that there is low chance any of you know what it is and what to do - but not even the doctor knew and gave me what obviously worked for the crust but spread the swelling - and have no money for the oftamologist right now.. ANy ideas?

Memey, read up on honey (I only do it externally, on the lids), and camomile tea bag on the closed eye.
There is obvious singes of Zinc deficiency in this case. Take 50mg Zinc Citrate or Zinc Gluconate with 2mg Copper away from fibre foods. Rub the affected area with Cod Liver Oil each morning.
Switch brands of hair Shampoo to a medicated one. A hot bath of 1/4 cup Epsom Salts and 1/4 cup Borax once or twice a weak will help. Coconut Oil in foods or as supplement will help. Oil of Oregano soft gels will kill infections in the gut which will boost immune function all over.
Hi, my son used to get a lot of eye infections, the pimple on the lash line you mention is an infected eyelash. It seems to be common with long lashes. He used to get them one after the other. My research led me to Colloidal silver and to make sure he eats some raisins everyday (obviously nutritionally something was lacking). He did not like the Colloidal silver drops he said they stung, so I use a tea bag, any kind, herbal, black etc, dunk the bag in boiling water and when cool enough squeeze and apply to eye. Laying down is easier. Several times a day for as long as you can keep it on him. Recently we had another infection and I suspect the cotton wool with cs and it cleared up really well with one application but I think we caught it early as well. Also for your son something to help the inflammation internally a lot of the Indian cooking spices are good like cloves, cinnamon and turmeric. Maybe some turmeric 1/4 tsp in some warm milk with pure honey twice a day.
Memey: "He has had horrible problems with acid reflux and has to eat at least 5 times a day to avoid it, have tried Oil of Oregano soft gels but they were way way too hars on his tummy.
This is a direct symptom of elimination failure. Try cleaning & stimulating the Gallbladder with Dr Christopher's "Liver/Gall" herbal formula. Resume the Oregano with added one spoon of Milled Flax Seed to clean the Colon. ACV and Lemon Juice is good for increasing Bile flow.
The Hot Baths will help detox & elimination as will any sweating like Sauna or Steam Room.
