Is it normal for an eye to be obscenely swollen with pink eye?
This morning I was diagnosed with a double ear infection and bronchitis. I have had tons of yellowish green fluid oozing out of my nose (sorry for TMI!) and have a horrible cough. My eyes started watering terribly this afternoon and I assumed it just indicated I had a fever. Tonight yellowish gunk started accumulating in the corner of my eye. My dd#2 had a short bout of pink eye last week, following the croup. Her pink eye resolved within 12 hours of starting the drops. My eyes are SO PUFFY I can't close them to go to sleep. Has anyone ever experienced this?? I'm just wondering if I need to run to urgent care or wait to see what happens overnight. I sterilized dd's eye drops and used them tonight...but I am not seeing ANY improvement.
Forgive me for sounding so pathetic...I can't even believe what a disaster I am!
