KST A to Z
Tear duct - blocked

I had an amazing thing happen this morning at the office.
An eleven-day-old baby came in with his mother. His eye had been swollen shut all weekend. The pediatrician didn't know if it was conjunctivitis or an infected tear duct.
I asked the baby using the OD if I could help him. I then adjusted the sphenoid, nose and sinus. The eye just popped right open. The mother was amazed (I was too).
The mother called a few hours later and said that all the weeping is completely gone and the eye looks normal and healthy again. She said, "I always liked chiropractic, but now I am a true believer!!"
