Doctor's answer:
This nasal congestion situation can be considered in two cases. One is that the child's airway is naturally narrow, and they can tolerate it when they are born. However, as they grow rapidly after birth, it may reappear gradually and may even soften. If the child's general condition is good, careful observation is sufficient, as the child will gradually improve as they grow. The other is atypical laryngeal cartilage hypoplasia, which sometimes causes a hoarse sound during feeding. In this case, supplementing the child with vitamin D and calcium can be helpful. If the mother experienced leg cramps during pregnancy, this approach is even more encouraged.
