baby's eyes running
My 3 week old awoke 2 days ago with right eye stuck together with matter. After getting matter out, it has continued to run yellowish fluid. It is only in right eye. What could it be and how should I treat it?

It is an infection. Take the child to the pediatrician for antibiotics.

its a blocked tear duct and it is very common but could get infected.... it will most likely disappear before the baby is one year and if not the dr will want to do surgery to fix it... my middle son had it and it was gone around five months my nephew had it for 6 months really bad.... my friends baby had it for three months
