Yellowish and sticky discharge in the left eye of my 10-day-old newborn. Slight redness on his upper eyelid. Can I consult my pharmacist for this issue? Should I be worried? What are the solutions?

It is recommended to seek medical attention from a healthcare professional, such as a doctor or pediatrician, especially when dealing with a newborn who is showing signs of inflammation or discharge around the eye. This could indicate an infection or another underlying issue that requires attention. It is always best to err on the side of caution when it comes to the health and well-being of a newborn.
