What to do if children have nasal mucus

In fact, we all know that children are relatively young, so when they have nasal mucus, they cannot clean it by themselves, and if it cannot be removed in time, it is likely to affect the child's breathing. At this time, they can only rely on the help of their parents. So how should parents help children clean their nasal mucus? I hope that the following sharing can help parents solve this problem. I hope that parents with children at home will always pay attention.

Children have more nasal secretions and their nasal passages are very narrow. If the mucus in the nose is not dealt with in time and the dust and solid particles in the air are inhaled, it will easily dry out and form nasal mucus. Over time, the nasal mucus will become larger and larger and will block the baby's nasal cavity. To prevent this situation, the first thing to do is to clean your baby's snot in time. If a child's nasal discharge suddenly increases, it is likely caused by a cold or inflammation of the nasal mucosa. At this time, you should take your child to the hospital in time for anti-inflammatory treatment to eliminate the "culprit" that causes increased runny nose. Therefore, the best way to deal with it is to get rid of the baby's snot before it dries up.

You can use a cotton swab dipped in sesame oil and gently rotate it in the child's nostrils. After a while, when the child sneezes, the booger will come out by itself.

You can drop a small amount of cool boiled water or some anti-inflammatory nasal drops or eye drops into the nostrils, and then use the above method after it softens.

You can gently pinch the outside of your baby's nostrils, and the mucus may fall off, or induce your baby to sneeze to clear it out.

Families with the means can use ultrasonic atomization equipment or similar equipment that can generate water vapor and aim the water vapor at the baby's nostrils, which can also help soften the nasal mucus.

It is best not to use anything to pick it out, as it can easily damage the nasal mucosa. Here is a little trick for you. If you are breastfeeding, you can drop a drop of milk into your baby, and when the mucus becomes soft, pinch the little nose with your hand, and the mucus will come out when the baby sneezes!

First, cover the nose with a warm, wet towel to soften the booger, then roll a napkin into a thin stick and rotate it in the nostrils to get the booger out.

The above-mentioned methods are all ways to help children remove nasal mucus. If parents find that their children have nasal mucus, they must not ignore their babies, as this may affect the child's breathing. However, they cannot pick it out casually with their hands, as this may damage the nasal mucosa. Therefore, everyone must take good care of the children's health and must not be careless.
