Good idea to limit excess yin intake when any form of inflammation occurs. I don't know about the black sesame seed tea.
A good form of natural antibiotic that can be taken in tea form is Old Man's Beard -- a species of Usnea lichen that grows locally on oak trees in most areas. You can simply infuse this in a pot of kukicha tea and let sit for 5 mins. Will not interfere with intestinal flora. Use about 1 tablespoon Usnea per cup of tea. Your daughter can drink this tea three times daily, along with use of eye wash and external plaster.
The albi plaster is made by peeling the hairy skin off of the albi or taro (or yucca potato -- sometimes called poi in Hawaii or Sato Imo in Japan). You then grate the taro potato and add @ 45% white flour (best if organic) and only 5% grated ginger.
You blend together by hand and shape it into a golf ball, then flatten it. It should not be too dry. Place the flattened mixture on a cotton cloth, like a dish towel and then place a folded sheet of cheesecloth or gauze on top of the mixture. Place the gauze side next to the (closed) eye and use a bandana or ace bandage to hold the abi mix on. It should be changed every four hours.
I hope this helps,
In peace, Roy
