Adults know that if the nose is not ventilated, it can be very uncomfortable. The nose can filter harmful substances in the air and also warm the air. If the baby's nasal turbinates are swollen and the nose is not ventilated, they can only breathe through the mouth, which can inhale a lot of harmful substances and endanger their health. So what should I do if the baby's inferior turbinate is swollen?
Enlarged nasal turbinates in babies refer to the swelling of the muscle tissue around the nasal bone caused by inflammation inside the nose, resulting in a smaller nasal cavity and obstructed breathing. Untreated conditions can also lead to many related illnesses. Mothers should take their babies to professional hospitals for treatment and pay attention to the following issues:
1. Under the guidance of a doctor, some medication can be dropped into the baby's nasal cavity to improve anti-inflammatory symptoms and increase the space in the nasal cavity.
2. Sodium chloride seawater solution can also be used to clean the nasal cavity, effectively removing various bacteria, cleaning foreign objects, helping the nasal mucosa restore normal function, and making breathing more smooth.
3. When the weather is cold, do not let babies wash their faces with hot water. Exercise them to wash their faces with cold water. Cold water can stimulate the nasal mucosa and enhance the ability of the nose to resist cold air and bacteria from the outside world.
4. If the baby has inflammation in the nose, remember to wear a mask when going out to reduce pollutants in the air, including pollen, dust, etc., which can irritate the inside of the baby's nose and worsen the condition.
