20 Home Remedies To Help Relieve Pink Eye

18. Garlic

Taste

A single clove of garlic may be small, but every single one packs a powerful punch. This vegetable has proven to boost the immune system, improve heart health, contain loads of vitamin C, B6, manganese, fiber and much more. And because it contains tons of antioxidants, as well as antiviral, anti-fungal and antibacterial properties, it is often used to treat the common cold too. To help with pink eye, you can take a clove of garlic and crush it as much as possible. From the juice that’s released, attempt to collect it and put it on the eyelid of the infected eye, keeping the eyelid closed. Because garlic can be incredibly strong in odor and spice when raw, you need to be careful when using it. If it’s too difficult to use, or if there is too much heat or pain that goes along with using it, refrain from this type of home treatment and try something else instead.
