A. this occurs due to nasolacrimal duct obstruction which is very common in children at this age it occurs due to obstruction of pathway (nasolacrimal duct) from eyes to the nose for which eyes massage is needed regularly and this problem goes away with increasing age of the child meet your doctor for more information and also go through various videos which will also tell you how to massage the eyes to decrease the obstruction. if the obstruction is not taken care of the proper massage it can lead to infection in the eyes and more watery eyes as well as red eyes and secretions from the eyes they are respiratory secretions which is present in the narrow respiratory tract of the child. the sound of ghar... ghar.. is present when air passes over these secretions in the narrow respiratory tract. if the respiratory rate of the child is within normal limits and the child is not having any other complaints do not worry about the sound which is present due to respiratory secretions. if you feel that the child is havings some difficulty in breathing you can always give nasal saline drops in the nasal cavity which will swash away the mucus present in the nasal cavity as well as the respiratory tract. the problem improve with increasing age of the child when there is broadening of the respiratory tract .

A. for both of the situations you should check with your doctor because without a proper assessment it would be difficult to give you correct guidance if you’re facing any of these issues with a child then it is very important important to have a clarity with your treating doctor
