My daughter is 2 weeks old and has blocked tear ducts on both her eyes. The eyes are always watering and she wakes up to crusty eye discharge shutting her eyelids. Im giving her massage and warm compresses, I need to know whether breast milk squeezed into her eyes can do good as my mother says still I'm worried to try without any Dr's suggestion. Kindly help me with this query I cannot see my little one shed tears all day long.
