What Causes Bloodshot Eyes With Itching?

For the past five days my eyes has been bloodshot, itchy, water, and it goes blurry at times. When i woke up this morning it felt like i got punched in the eye and im not sure what it could be. My parents just keep acting like its nothing. Also it feels like there is pressure around and behind my eye.

Hello.it seems from the history that you are having red eyes with itching and watery eyes.
These symptoms indicate acute conjunctivitis. The treatment is by use of antibiotic eye drops. Use of anti allergic drugs and antiinflammatory drugs provides symptomatic relief.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
