NO
You need and antibiotic..it can get nasty and it spreads easily
It's also called conjunctivitis,apply hot compresses several times a day (the heat kills the microorganisms) If you have chamomile tea you can use that as a compress as well. Goldenseal is a natural antibiotic that will help if the pink eye is from an infection.If swollen, you may try grating a fresh potato and wrapping with a gauze then applying to eyes.
Pink eye is highly contageous! Try at all costs to avoid rubbing your eye and make sure to wash your hands after applying medicines or if you do happen to rub your eye. Please see a doctor. You should get antibiotic for it. Then it will clear up in just a couple of days. I've had pink eye many times because I used to wear contacts, but didn't take them out at night and clean them as much as I should have (was too much of a party girl to pay attention to such things back then). I prefer natural remedies when available, but have not yet found anything for pink eye (conjunctivitis). You can go to your local natural foods store and they may be able to direct your toward some possible symptom reliefs.
If you wake up in the morning with your eyes or eye closed shut this is a sign of pink eye. you never want to use home remedies, pink eye is a fungi and you need a prescription from a doctor to cure fungi. once you start the eye drops of 24 hours you are less contagious.
