How can a baby cope with a cold
Ginger powder scalding feet
In the early stages of a baby's cold, if the nose is not ventilated, you can place a slightly hot ginger paste on the soles of the baby's feet while sleeping at night, which can help the nose breathe smoothly and make the cold faster. Method: Cut ginger into shreds and stir fry in a dry pan until fragrant (if slightly burnt, it doesn't matter). Place the stir fried ginger shreds in a small gauze bag, and then place the slightly hot ginger shreds in the bag on the soles of the baby's feet. (Be sure to note that the heat of ginger shreds should not be too hot, so as not to burn the baby.)
Scallion strips hot smoked
Baby's cold induced nasal obstruction can be treated by soaking scallion white in water, cutting the scallion white into thin strips (which are easily flavorful), placing it in boiling water, and smoking the baby's mouth and nose while it is hot. This method has significant therapeutic effects on baby's cold induced nasal obstruction.
Saltwater nasal wash
Mom can use cold boiled water with salt, wet it with a small cotton swab, and clean the baby's nasal cavity. When cleaning, be sure to move gently. Daily cleaning can relieve stuffiness in the nose!
