[tri-med] Re: ATTENTION: Anyone with experience with clogged tear ducts

 I have clogged tear ducts (I'm not a tri-er, but anyway).  I was told to clean 
the duct opening with 1:4 water: baby shampoo (J&J is good), then to apply a 
warm compress and massage up (like rolling your finger up the duct.)

Hi All :o)
My little buddy Colton has a problem at the moment with clogged tear ducts. 
Barbara and Ashley have been told to "massage them" and to come back in 3 
months. To me...that seems like entirely too long to wait to do something???? 
Anyone with a Trier 13, 18, whatever flavor...who's had experience with clogged 
tear ducts and the treatment/and/or/surgery thereof...could you please email 
Barbara (Colton's Gramma) directly and share your experience??? Her email is: 
lballard2@xxxxxxxxxx I would sincerely appreciate any input you give her :o) 
Thanks in advance :o)
