Since it's viral, antibiotics won't really help. There is a pink eye OTC medication you can get that may help as well. I would get some decongestants and sit in a bathroom with the door shut and the hot water running in the bathroom to help loosen up the congestion. Also, you can pick up some chamomile tea and make a cup as if you were to drink it (no sugar, no milk) allow to cool till warm, take a cotton ball and wash your eye out with that. This has been a home remedy that has worked in my family for years. So from your description above, I would try the above for 24-36 hours. If no help or change at all. Then return back to your doctor.
