Pink Eyes : Stye

By
Our breakfast in the morning had a little twist by adding a little humor to it by my curious little boy.

D : Oh no Mama! Happened A eyes? Too pink? Oh no happen?
Me : A’s eyes has a teeny tiny germs on it.
D : Wow! Too pink. Wey Dodo pink eyes mama?
Me : You don’t need a pink eye baby because you’re eyes are okay. It doesn’t have those tiny germs on it.
D : Huh? No pink eyes Dodo? Yook mama! Pink Lips!

I swear mommies it’s too hard to explain sometimes to your kids to their level of understanding without making them confused. I have those times wherein I gasp for proper words and try to make them satisfied with my answer. Oh dear wisdom please stay with me always.

Yesterday, my little girl woke up with a stye on her right eyelid again. This is the second time it happened already. The first time, I nearly freaked out because both of her eyes were affected. Kawawa lang. But she doesn’t seem to be bothered by it. Kulit galore parin naman siya.

Thank you Uncle Google for the answers. I am not an expert on these bacterial infections and some other management I had in my memory bank way back nursing years was buried under my pillow with my anesthesia. J had to do the prime intervention with her because she struggles a lot and he is better at it.

Three simple home remedies for stye:
  • Handwashing. We should wash our hands before and after touching the affected area. We should clean our eyes from any dirt accumulated from it.
  • Warm Compress. Get a damp warm cloth and place it over the affected eyelid. It usually subsides in a week. But once it persists, I suggest seeking consult with a physician.
  • Apply anti-bacterial cream. Use only when the physician prescribes it.

Myra Ultimate Dietary Supplement Review

Health is wealth. I have said this countless times to my children and everyone else. Now this pandemic reminds us that we need to take care of ourselves more since we are battling a virus. Aside from exercise, healthy food, and vitamins that we take everyday, we also need to take care of our skin. Even though we are at home most of the time, we must not neglect the protective layer of our body. I learned skin care through my mom who was health conscious too. She would take vitamins and supplements of all sorts and strictly follow a skin care routine day and night. She is my biggest influence when it comes to taking care of myself. I learned that in order for us to have a good glowing skin, it should start from within.  I came across Myra a few years back at a drugstore when I started working and began taking their Vitamin E supplement. Now they Myra Ultimate, a new product that I tried and here are my thoughts. One week of taking it, I noticed a significant change in the glow of my...

Purple Fairy Cosmetics Review x Giveaway

If kilay is life, liptint is life also for me. There was a phase in my life where I'd hoard every new lipstick in the market. But suddenly, I grew tired of it. BOO.   When I purchased my first liptint and knew how versatile it was for a busy mom like me, I had already a thing for liptints. In a span of a year, I bought several local and foreign brands and of course there were mixed emotions about it. There is just something about it that tells me still, they do belong to the same mother but unique in every way.  It is about time for me to throw some of it because I have been using it beyond six months already. Do not get me wrong though, I store my liptints in a cold and dry place (refrigerator) that is why, I could still use it beyond it's shelf life. Now it's time to hunt for a new local brand when suddenly I came across the owner of the brand I have been eyeing to try for the longest time.  Anyway, so much for blabbing here and let's get to the review...
