Default Hamster got etchi face and eyes

My hamster got etchi face and eyes infection probably. I used saline water to wash those eyes few days but didn't improved. Now the danger is she stopped eating. She got weak and having some trouble with her face. Is there any home remedies or common antibiotics for her?

Hello

It would be advisable to take your hamster to a vet rather than try to home medicate. Antibiotic eye drops can be given but only by a vet,

Good luck, hope your hamster improves soon

Hello,
the best would be to take her to the vet as he is the only one who can make an accurate diagnosis and provide proper medication.
Maybe you also need to check the bedding that you are using? What type is it? sometimes there are termites in there or the dust can cause itching or respiratory issues to hamsters.

When you go to the vet have a sample from the bedding and maybe a sample of the food that you normally feed him.
