My baby has an insect bite on his cheek from yesterday morning. This morning he woke up with a swollen and red eye. What should I do?

Based on the symptoms described, such as swelling, redness, and pus, it is possible that your baby has an infection from the insect bite. It is important to seek medical attention, as the doctor may prescribe antibiotics to treat the infection. In the meantime, you can give your baby some Benadryl syrup to help with the symptoms of swelling and itching. Remember to follow the dosage instructions provided by the doctor or pharmacist.
