What should I do if my child has nasal mucus?

What should I do if my child has nasal mucus? I believe many parents have asked this question. If a child has nasal mucus, it will cause difficulty in breathing. Because nasal mucus contains a large number of bacteria, it can easily cause infection. Parents must not be careless and must deal with it in time. Children are different from adults. Improper handling can easily injure their nasal mucosa. The following will introduce to parents how to deal with the boogers in their children's noses.

You can use a cotton swab dipped in sesame oil and gently rotate it in the child's nostrils to soften the mucus in the nose and prevent the mucus from sticking to the nasal wall. Then gently insert the special tweezers for pinching baby's nose into the baby's nose. Be careful to move slowly and not to insert it too deep, otherwise it will hurt the baby. Also try to keep your baby quiet for a while and not make any noise. You can also apply a hot towel (not too hot to touch) to the baby's nose to soften the baby's nasal mucus. Repeat the hot compress several times and it will be easier to clean without hurting the baby.

Or if the baby has a lot of nasal mucus, one thing is for parents to do is to pay attention to cleaning the baby. Another thing is that the baby is getting hot, so be sure to give the baby more water to drink. You can also go to a professional maternity and baby store to buy Qinghuobao or fruit-flavored intestinal protective clearing treasure for the baby. It can effectively regulate the baby's discomfort symptoms of getting hot and also encourage the baby to drink more water. 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 the baby's nostrils, and the mucus may fall off, or induce the baby to sneeze to clear it away. Families with the conditions 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 soften the mucus.

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. As long as it does not affect the child's breathing, it is okay to have more nasal secretions, but you should pay attention to the color of the nasal secretions. If it is yellow purulent mucus, it means there is an infection, and white sticky mucus is not a big problem. Suggestions: It is best to use a humidifier at home. You can use a cotton swab dipped in warm water to clean the baby's secretions. If it is too much, you can use a seawater extract nasal spray (no side effects) for local care.

What should parents do if their children have nasal mucus? I believe that parents have already solved the problem properly. Parents who love their children must read this carefully. If you encounter this problem, you must not be careless. You must deal with it in a timely manner and be extra careful. Take the right approach to ultimately solve this problem and make your child spend every day happily!
