There are many symptoms of a cold, and nasal congestion is one of the serious illnesses. When the baby is relatively young, if the nose is severely blocked, the baby's breathing will not be smooth, and the baby's diet and sleep will be seriously affected, thus the baby's physical health cannot be guaranteed. So, what should I do if my baby gets their nose blocked?
Firstly, when parents notice that their baby's nose is blocked, they can use a warm towel to apply hot compress to the baby's nose. After the hot compress, the space in the nasal cavity will increase to a certain extent, and the situation of the baby's nose blockage will be alleviated to some extent. However, this is only a temporary treatment method, and after a period of time, nasal congestion will reappear.
In fact, to truly solve the symptoms of a baby's nasal congestion, it is necessary to find the true cause. If nasal congestion is caused by a cold, parents should promptly treat their baby's cold. If the cold disease is cured, the condition of nasal congestion will also improve. When treating a cold, parents should use medication according to their baby's age group.
Finally, if a baby's nose is blocked and they also have symptoms of runny nose, parents should clean their baby's nose in a timely manner to avoid it staying in the nasal cavity and upper lip area for a long time, otherwise it will cause certain damage to the baby's skin. When wiping the baby's nose, be sure to move gently and slowly.
