A member asked:
Doctor told me that the redness in my eye was from a sinus infection due to allergies, however i woke up the next morning with a lot of sticky puss in that eye, should i go back in for evaluation?

Eye pus: Yes. This sounds concerning for a conjunctivitis and should be evaluated. Sometimes topical antibiotics are needed.
