What should I do if my baby suddenly has a runny nose?

Many mothers with babies are most afraid that their babies will catch a cold and have a runny nose. However, this phenomenon often happens to babies because their immunity has not yet fully developed. So if you are not careful, the baby will have a runny nose. So after the baby has a runny nose, you must know how to regulate it so that your child can get better as soon as possible.

Diet therapy: eat more fruits.

Fruits contain a lot of vitamin C, which is beneficial for recovery from colds and can also reduce the production of mucus. Vitamin C in fruits can enhance the baby's resistance. When the baby's resistance is enhanced, he can naturally resist the invasion of cold viruses, so eating more fruits is very beneficial.

Drug therapy: Fumigation with cinnamon water or consumption of astragalus.

At this time, you can take medicine under the doctor's prescription. Depending on the situation, you can clear the external evil, such as cold evil must be cleared, heat evil must be adjusted, and then use the method of opening the orifices to make the nose unblocked. This can be done with Xindi water fumigation. There are also cases where long-term illness or wind-cold invasion leads to qi deficiency and inability to absorb fluids. At this time, you can use Astragalus to replenish qi.

Treatment remedy: Boil green onion in water.

In addition to drinking more boiled water to replenish water, parents can try boiling scallion whites in water. Wash the white part of the scallion with roots, cut into sections, and cook in a small pot. Drink 300 ml a day. It is specially used to treat early-stage colds without fever. If your baby refuses to drink it, you can add some brown sugar. Brown sugar can add flavor and also has the effect of dispelling cold, which can kill two birds with one stone.

Home care: hot compress with a towel.

When your baby catches a cold, you can use a clean towel or gauze, dip it in boiling water, wring it dry, and then wrap it in layers. Since babies' skin is very tender, be careful not to burn them. Adults can test the temperature on themselves first. Then place the wrapped cloth balls at the base of the baby's nose (a little below the eyebrows) for hot compress.

It is very necessary for mothers to understand these regulations, because if the child's runny nose symptoms do not improve, it may cause rhinitis, which will cause the baby's health to get worse and worse, so you must pay attention to it at ordinary times. Once you find that the baby has signs of runny nose and cold, you must adjust it in time, which is very good for their health.
