Can a 6-year-old child's conjunctivitis heal on its own?
Disease description:
My child is 6 years old and has developed red eye (conjunctivitis). My father says it doesn't need treatment and will get better on its own. Can a 6-year-old child's red eye heal spontaneously?

Conjunctivitis does not resolve on its own, as ocular inflammatory changes naturally lead to various pathological problems. Without timely recovery and clearance of the internal eye inflammation in later stages, the condition will only worsen progressively. Effective treatment and prompt intervention are necessary to thoroughly eliminate ocular inflammation, thereby achieving proper recovery. It is essential to maintain good eye hygiene for children and follow a light,清淡 diet.
