Patient's question:
Eight-month-old baby got a cold yesterday. Last night, she had a nap and her nose got blocked. Today, we gave her medicine all day, but it didn't work. She just fell asleep and woke up again because her nose was still blocked. Is there any way to make her nose unblocked quickly? They said she can drink scallion water. Can an eight-month-old baby drink it?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, it is not recommended to let your child drink scallion water in this way to relieve their stuffy nose. It is suggested that the main thing is to provide your child with clothing and pay close attention to preventing colds. In this case, as long as the child gradually recovers, the symptoms of stuffy nose will gradually ease. At the same time, it is important to let the child drink more water, and if necessary, a humidifier can be placed at home to increase the indoor humidity.
