Our 2 yo DD has been hit hard by seasonal allergies. In the past 4 days she has developed a hearty cough, runny nose, and the worst of it, discharging eyes to the point that her long lashes are constantly getting stuck together annd the whites of her eyes are bright red. She is somewhat lathargic.
We closed up the house, which is hard because it is very hot here right now and we do not have AC, are limiting her time outside as this only makes her symptoms worse, are giving her Clariton once a day and allergy eye drops as often as I can and she is just not getting any better.
I could not get her into the doctor on Friday b/c they were booked but I am wondering if I should be taking her to the ER or holding out and trying to get her in on Monday. Is there anything anyone could recommend for her home treatment beyond what we are already doing?
