There is always secretion in the nose, and when there is a lot of secretion in the nose, there will also be more nasal mucus produced. So mothers need to clean their babies' nasal mucus in a timely manner and try not to harm their nasal cavity. So, how do we get rid of the nasal mucus in babies' noses?
If the nasal mucus in the baby's nose is relatively moist and does not stick to the nasal hair, a child's nose suction device can be used to suck out the mucus. When using the nose suction device, the force should be light, not too strong, otherwise it will hurt the baby. If the baby's nasal discharge is hard and adheres to the nasal hair, it is necessary to first drop a few drops of sesame oil into the baby's nose to soften the nasal discharge, and then use a nasal suction device or cotton swab to remove the nasal discharge.
If the baby's nasal discharge grows on the outside of the nostrils, it can be clipped out with small tweezers, and baby specific tweezers should be used. Mothers should be careful not to directly use their hands or nails to clip it, to prevent bacteria in the nails from infecting the baby, and this can also scratch the baby.
If the nasal mucus in the baby's nose is not so easy to pick out, you can dip a cotton swab in some warm water and then turn it around in the baby's nose to soften the hardened mucus, which will make it easier to pick out. And softened nasal discharge is also easily carried out by cotton swabs. When using a cotton swab stick, be careful not to stretch it too deep. If the nasal discharge is in a relatively deep position, mothers should not try to forcefully remove it. As long as the baby's nose is breathing smoothly, they can temporarily ignore it.
