Question: My baby girl is 4 months old she has tear duct block what should I do
Answer: Hello,
Actully some times the blocked tear ducts actually clear up completely on their own without any treatment at all.
In the meantime, you can use these simple ways to help clear up blocked tear ducts at home.
Use a warm compress
Every few hours, when the drainage builds up, warm up a clean and soft washcloth or cotton ball with water and gently clean the eye. You can apply gentle pressure to the tear duct and wipe from the inside of the duct to the outside, so you don't wipe anything into the eye.
If both of your baby's eyes are clogged, use a different, clean side of the washcloth or new cotton ball before wiping the other eye.
Apply tear duct massage
To help open the tear duct and empty it out, ask a doctor to demonstrate how to do tear duct massage. Essentially, you can apply gentle pressure between the ducts, alongside of the upper nose to try to help them clear.
You can perform the duct massage up to two times a day, but remember that it's very important to be as gentle as possible
