What to do if your 2-year-old baby has a runny nose

The weather in spring is changeable. It is cold in the morning and slightly warmer at noon. The temperature difference during the day is relatively large, so children are more likely to catch cold. Runny nose after catching cold is a common phenomenon. Parents should never ignore the runny nose of their children. So what should you do if your two-year-old baby has a runny nose?

As long as the child has a runny nose, it means that the child has caught a cold. Some children sneeze and have clear runny nose every morning, but after breakfast and activities, the runny nose stops. It must be that the child caught a cold at night. Either the child is not covered enough or the child kicked off the quilt. If the child did not catch a cold at night, he would not feel this discomfort in the morning.

If a child often sneezes and has a runny nose during the day, it means that the child has a lot of cold in the body and weak qi. In addition to making sure that the child does not catch cold, parents must also pay attention to the child's diet. Children should not be given cold foods. They should be fed more neutral or warm foods. They should not eat or eat less fruit, and should not drink cold drinks, eat radishes or hawthorns. They should not be massaged. Soak the child's feet in warm water every night until the child sweats slightly. Try to ensure that the child gets enough sleep.

If the child is usually fine but starts to sneeze or have a runny nose in the afternoon or evening, it means that the child does not wear enough clothes during the day, or the child sweats while playing, and takes off too many clothes and does not put them on in time and catches a cold, or the child's diet during the day is too cold, causing the child to have a cold body. At this time, parents should also find the reason, get rid of the coldness in time, give the child ginger and sugar water, drink more warm water, soak the feet in warm water or add a little moxa water before going to bed, let the child sweat, and the cold can be expelled in time. Let the child go to bed early, and soon the child will no longer have a runny nose.

The above is the solution to a two-year-old baby's runny nose. To cope with changeable weather, first of all, pay attention to dressing. Try to wear more in the morning and less at noon. Secondly, in daily life, you can eat more fruits and vegetables to improve your immunity and resist various diseases.
