For parents, having a baby with rhinitis is a very troublesome thing. Because babies are still young, it is difficult for them to resist the onset of rhinitis, which can lead to stuffiness in the nose and make them particularly prone to crying. So, what should I do if my baby's nose is not ventilated due to rhinitis?
What should I do if my baby has rhinitis and a stuffy nose
1. Parents can use steam to fumigate their baby's nose. Parents can add some hot water to the thermos bottle, then open the bottle cap and let the baby get close to the steam overflowing from the bottle. However, they should pay attention to the temperature and not burn their face. Smoking continuously for 10 minutes will be very effective.
2. Parents can use a nasal cannula to suck out their baby's mucus. Babies may develop nasal mucus due to rhinitis, and they may also be young and unable to blow their noses. At this time, babies may have difficulty breathing due to excessive nasal mucus. Parents can use a nasal aspirator to help babies suck out their nasal mucus and clean it up in a timely manner, as well as the viruses it carries.
3. Parents can massage their babies' noses. Parents can massage their baby's nose bridge, which can promote blood circulation in the baby's nose and help alleviate nasal congestion
4. Parents can give their babies some ginger and brown sugar water to drink.
Can long-term chronic rhinitis become cancerous
Chronic rhinitis may lead to nasopharyngeal carcinoma, so babies with chronic rhinitis must seek timely treatment to control the condition and prevent it from worsening. If left untreated for a long time, chronic rhinitis is likely to develop nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
