What to do if your baby picks his nose

Many babies often pick their noses, and many parents think that this is a bad habit of their children. In fact, it is not the excessive endocrine of the child that causes excessive mucus in the nasal cavity. The following article will introduce to you how to clean the baby's nasal mucus. Let's learn about it together.

!Observe whether the baby's nasal congestion is serious and treat it accordingly. Children have narrower upper respiratory tracts than adults, so they mainly breathe through their noses. Children have weaker resistance and are better at preventing infection. You can hold the baby's head, use a cotton swab dipped in warm water, and gently remove the secretions. Be sure to be gentle to avoid damaging the mucous membrane and causing bleeding. You can also use one or two drops of breast milk or warm water to apply to the nasal cavity. When the secretions soften, you can use cotton thread to gently stimulate the nasal cavity and let the baby sneeze to expel the dirt. You can apply a small warm towel to the base of his nose to allow hot and humid air to enter the nostrils, which can relieve nasal congestion. Wash your baby often, just use a towel, and rub the dirty places with your hands. I wish your baby a healthy growth!

The second method is to roll a corner of the napkin into a longer and thinner roll, put it in the baby's nose and turn it a few times, and that's it! Doing this has two results: one is that some booger will be brought out, and if you do it a few more times, more will be brought out. A better result is that the baby will usually sneeze after turning like this, and one sneeze can bring out a lot of booger! Sometimes the size of the booger that comes out of a sneeze is a bit shocking: how can such a big booger come from such a small nostril? ! Haha, the second method is to let the baby crawl, let him crawl on you or on the bed. The baby will usually be tired and will hum, and soon there will be mucus coming out of his nose.

The above introduces the method of cleaning baby's nasal mucus. In daily life, you can use a cotton swab to clean your child's nose slightly. Do not let your child pick his nose excessively with his hands, as this will cause great harm to each other as the mucous membrane is very fragile.
