Parents often come up with many ways to relieve their children's discomfort, such as nasal congestion. There are many reasons that can cause nasal congestion, so when giving treatment, it is also important to consider the causes and find out how to treat a child's nasal congestion quickly?
1. Removing secretions: Usually, a child's nasal congestion is caused by blocked secretions, and parents can use a small cotton swab to clean it up. Prepare a special cotton swab for children, then drip cold water into the child's nasal cavity to soften it after secretion, and gently clean it with a cotton swab. If nasal mucus sticks, take out the cotton swab and be careful not to directly enter the baby's nasal cavity.
2. Ginger and Garlic Foot Soaking: Boil the ginger and garlic in boiling water first, then add some salt and vinegar to the water until the water is cool enough to the appropriate temperature to soak the feet, until the child's feet turn red when soaked. After soaking, let the child wear clean socks to keep warm.
3. Apply a hot towel to the nose: Gently press the middle part of the child's nose with a warm towel, and wait for the towel to cool down before exchanging heat. The towel can effectively relieve the child's nasal congestion. Be careful to control the temperature and avoid burning the child's skin.
4. Treating colds: If a child has a severe cold, it can cause nasal congestion, so timely treatment of colds is very important. Medication can be used for treatment, and it is also important to let the child drink more water so that the body's fire and toxins can be better eliminated.
