What should I do if my child has a runny nose when using the air conditioner?

In hot summer or cold winter, we will choose to turn on the air conditioner, but those who have babies at home are particularly prone to runny nose. What's going on? Parents are very worried about this, afraid that their babies will get sick. If their babies are sick, taking medicine frequently will cause certain harm to their bodies. So, what should we do if our child has a runny nose due to air conditioning? If you want to know the answer, please read the following carefully!

Steam for nose.

Pour a cup of hot water and let the baby's nose rest against it to fumigate it until the baby does not feel hot. Parents should take good care of the baby and prevent him from crying. At the beginning, you should let the baby's nose slowly move closer to the edge of the quilt, and then continue to fumigate after the baby has adapted.

When using steam to fumigate your baby's nose, be sure to control the time, and it should not exceed 10 minutes. Just fumigate your baby 3-5 times a day. When fumigating the baby's nose, it is best for parents to play games with the baby so that the baby can cooperate more with the fumigation.

Brown sugar ginger water.

If your baby has a cold due to a cold and just has a runny nose, you can boil some brown sugar ginger water for him, let him drink it while it's hot, and then let him take a long nap. After he sweats, the cold will get much better.

If your baby doesn't like the taste of ginger water, you can coax him or her by telling him or her to eat a piece of rock sugar after he or she finishes drinking it. This way, the baby will be more happy to drink the brown sugar ginger water. Generally, you can boil about 200 ml each time, drink it twice a day, and you will see results after 2 days.

When the baby's runny nose is thick and yellow, it means there is inflammation. The baby should be given appropriate cold and anti-inflammatory medicines so that he can get better faster. If your baby has a fever again and it exceeds 38.5°C, you should give him some antipyretics.

Through the introduction above, I believe you already know what to do if your child has a runny nose due to air conditioning! When your baby is sick, don't always take medicine or get injections, as this will easily reduce your baby's resistance. The above methods can effectively solve your baby's runny nose symptoms. Normally, don’t turn on the air conditioner often at home, and don’t set the temperature too low, otherwise your baby will get sick easily.
