Conjunctivitis(pink eye)

 Conjunctivitis, also known as pink eye, is an inflammation of the conjunctiva, the thin, clear membrane that lines the eyelids and covers the white part of the eye. It is a common eye condition that can be caused by a virus, bacteria, or allergy.


The symptoms of conjunctivitis can vary depending on the cause, but they often include:

* Red, swollen, and irritated eyes

* Watery, itchy, or crusty eyes

* Sensitivity to light

* Discharge from the eyes

Conjunctivitis is usually not serious and goes away on its own within a few days. However, it is important to see a doctor if you have conjunctivitis, especially if you are a child or have a weakened immune system.

There are a few things you can do to help relieve the symptoms of conjunctivitis:

* Apply a cold compress to your eyes.

* Use artificial tears or saline eye drops.

* Avoid rubbing your eyes.

* Wash your hands frequently.

If you have bacterial conjunctivitis, your doctor may prescribe antibiotic eye drops or ointment.

Conjunctivitis can be contagious, so it is important to take steps to prevent the spread of the infection. These include:


* Avoiding close contact with people who are infected.

* Washing your hands frequently.

* Not sharing eye makeup or towels.

If you have conjunctivitis, it is important to stay home from work or school until the symptoms have resolved. This will help prevent the spread of the infection.

He was both the source of all creation and the force that would eventually destroy it. He was the embodiment of both life and death, love and hate, pleasure and pain. Shiva had five faces, each representing a different aspect of his being. His first face, Sadyojata, was the face of creation. It was the face of new beginnings, of hope and possibility. His second face, Vamadeva, was the face of wisdom. It was the face of knowledge and understanding. His third face, Aghora, was the face of destruction. It was the face of death and change. His fourth face, Tatpurusha, was the face of balance. It was the face of order and harmony. His fifth face, Ishana, was the face of the unknown. It was the face of mystery and magic.
