What to do if your baby's nose is blocked

It is easy for the baby's body to have some abnormalities. This is because the baby's physical constitution is poor and the body does not have much resistance. Once the weather changes and the seasons change, the baby feels unwell. When the baby's body shows abnormalities, timely treatment is needed, which is very helpful to improve the baby's physical condition. Why is the baby's nose stuffy and what should be done?

What to do if your baby's nose is stuffy:

In this situation, the mother will definitely be very anxious. What should she do? First of all, we must make sure that the baby is not suffering from a cold, and does not have a fever or other symptoms.

Use a small flashlight to check if your baby's nostrils are blocked.

If so, prepare a small cotton swab, dip it in sesame oil, and gently circle it around the baby's nostrils twice.

After the sesame oil has soaked into the nostrils and softened the hard nasal mucus inside, take another cotton swab, pull out the cotton thread a little, and gently rotate the cotton thread in the baby's nostrils to stimulate the baby to sneeze, and the stuff inside will come out.

If the mucus is difficult to soften and cannot be cleared up by sneezing, you can gently press the baby's nose twice with your hands to flatten the contents so that the air can escape.

If the baby does not have a fever or runny nose, but only has a stuffy nose, you can slice some ginger and put it in the baby's nostrils. The nose will be unblocked and the effect is very good.

If your baby has all the symptoms of a cold, he or she needs to be treated with medication. Babies’ colds are generally simple. The most commonly used cold medicine is Children’s Cold Granules, which are often used in combination with Ribavirin Granules.

Following the above methods to improve baby's stuffy nose is a good choice. The use of these methods does not pose any threat to the baby's body. However, when using these methods, you also need to pay attention to using them in moderation and not too much force, otherwise it will cause other discomfort to the baby. Parents also need to pay attention to this.
