Hi everyone
Looking for some advice, first child and first bout of conjunctivitis. DD is 2.5, eyes became red and slightly pussy on Wednesday. Got some eye drops from the chemist. Since then the puss has mainly gone but one eye is still roaring red blood shot, both eyes are swollen and purple. She has had a fever on and off since then which I'm trying to control with calpol. She has developed a cough and cold and is not eating at all and not sleeping at all. Last night we probably totalled about an hours sleep overall. is this is all normal to go with conjunctivitis? I thought it was just an infection in the eye so not prepared for just how poorly she has been - can't remember last seeing her this unwell and she is exhausted and beside herself.
Thanks in advance

Should conjunctivitis be this bad??
