Help! My infant daughter has a crusty right eye and it’s not swollen , no fever or distress but it dries and makes it shut . I heard it could be a blocked tear duct and I can use my breast milk to clean her eyes is that true?!?

Pink eye

Doctors now

yes. breast milk has antibacterial & healing properties, & antibodies

it’s not pink eye . But thanks !

ooooo okay !!

It’s clears on its own yea blocked tear duct. My daughter had the same thing for months . Pediatrician instructed me to massage the inner corner of eyes with clean hands a few times a day.

Yes just rub gently a baby wash cloth or cotton ball with some breast milk on the eye 2-3 times a day and it should clear on own soon

I used a warm rag and massaged the inner part of my babies eye with it to help clear it out. It did pop up every now and then

Thanks everyone ! It cleared up on its own ! 🙏🏽😊
