I've been sick for about a week now, and now I've developed pink eye. I got an antibiotic ointment for my eye, but since I tend to have shaky hands I accidently touched the tip of the tube to my eyelid, which the instructions say not to do. How worried should I be about having contaminated the ointment?

ask your doctor, don't ask random people on the internet for medical advice.

It's probably not contaminated but you actually should talk to your doctor

I didn't get it from a doctor, pharmacists can prescribe certain meds here. I just feel bad calling to ask that because it seems like an overreaction >_> but iunno. I don't wanna get worse at the same time.

So you got sick and you went to a pharmacist and asked them to give you medicine?

Basically. Like I said, pharmacists can prescribe for certain conditions here. At Rexalls at least. I guess pink eye is one of them

Is it true pink eye and just in one eye or is it both eyes and more likely linked to a sinus infection?

HO LEE SHIT!

Talk to your doctor. Or call the nurse line if your provider has one.
