How To Treat Conjunctivitis?

My daughter has conjunctivitis. The doctor today said that it is not necessarily contagious and gave her antibotics for her eye. The tip of her ear on the opposite side of her head is swollen. It appears like she got a mosquito bite. Would these two problems be related?

The eye infection is contagious but tip of ear involvement may not be linked. Your daughter should remain isolated. should not share her linen with others. Apply antibiotic eye drop properly. Keep watch on ear lobule. Can apply caladryl lotin over it.
