What to do if your child has a stuffy nose and snores? Mom has a solution

It is very common for children to have colds and stuffy noses in this season. If the nose is blocked, they will snore when they sleep, which will make the baby feel very uncomfortable. The mother will also be very worried. It is necessary to clear foreign objects in the baby's nose in time, or use scallion water to drip into the nose and let the baby drink more water.

1. Dry the scallion, wash and mash it, squeeze out the juice, and put 2 to 3 drops into the nose each time, 2 to 3 times a day.

2. For babies with nasal congestion and runny nose, use 3 grams each of Angelica dahurica and Perilla leaf, grind them into fine powder, put them in a bottle, and let the baby smell it twice a day, each time for 30 to 60 seconds. Or use moxa sticks to moxibustion the Baihui point (the intersection of the midline of the top of the head and the line connecting the two ear tips) for 5 to 10 minutes each time, twice a day.

Do not use adult nasal drops for newborns. To prevent nasal congestion in newborns, you should pay attention to maintaining a certain humidity in the room and not making it too dry. You should clean the nasal mucus regularly to eliminate nasal obstructions.

Warm reminder: Children's nose and nasal cavity are relatively short. Newborns have almost no inferior nasal meatus and no nasal hair. The nasal mucosa is weak and rich in blood vessels, so it is easy to be infected, causing congestion and swelling of the nasal mucosa and nasal congestion. Symptoms of nasal congestion in newborns include difficulty in sucking, irritability and crying, shortness of breath or breathing, and snoring while sleeping. If a newborn has a stuffy nose, you should first check whether there is any mucus or other foreign matter blocking the nasal cavity. If there is any blockage, it must be cleared immediately.
