Is it useful to wash the baby's nose for sinusitis?

We all know that babies belong to a vulnerable group. Due to their poor immunity, they often have some minor physical problems. Many parents will find that their babies have stuffy noses when they sleep. This situation is often caused by rhinitis. The most common type of rhinitis is sinusitis. This disease often occurs in babies. So is it useful to wash the baby's nose for sinusitis?

1. The symptoms of your child may be rhinitis. Washing the nose with saline is a very good treatment for rhinitis. This method belongs to physical therapy and has no side effects. The effect is slower than that of drugs, but for rhinitis without turbinate hypertrophy and nasal polyps, insisting on washing the nose is very effective. Usually you can maintain your nasal cavity well to reduce the chance of recurrence of rhinitis.

2. The baby's symptoms cannot rule out sinusitis. To treat sinusitis, you need to use local membrane contraction agents, such as ephedrine or nasal drops, combined with berberine or chloramphenicol liquid nasal drops for anti-inflammatory treatment. The number of times the medicine is applied each day should be based on maintaining ventilation. If ventilation cannot be maintained after medication, surgical treatment such as turbinate resection or electrocautery may be required.

3. You can try to let your child drink more water, or eat more fruits, so that the body can replenish enough water. This can not only improve the child's absorption of the medicine, but also moisturize the throat. 0.5% ephedrine furacillin drops can be used cautiously under the guidance of a doctor and usually take effect within a few minutes.

4. Consider that the nasal congestion is caused by swollen nasal concha or deviated nasal septum. For swollen nasal concha and deviated nasal septum, it is best not to have surgical treatment. Surgery has serious side effects, is very painful, and is prone to recurrence. Traditional Chinese medicine is very effective in treating nasal concha hypertrophy. Traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions are effective for nasal concha hypertrophy. The drugs directly act on the diseased mucosa, causing blood vessels to contract, tissue edema to disappear, and nasal concha and hyperplastic tissue to soften and decompose. Pay attention to nasal hygiene, strengthen physical exercise, strictly prohibit smoking, drinking, and spicy food, and keep warm.

In fact, sinusitis in babies can be relieved by washing the nose with salt water. In addition to this, the above article also introduces several methods that can relieve sinusitis symptoms. Babies often have problems of one kind or another, so it is necessary for us to understand the knowledge related to babies, so that we will not be so caught off guard when we really encounter the situation.
