What should I do if a two-month-old baby cries and feels stuffy when nursing?

Patient's question:

The baby is two months old. When feeding or crying, they experience nasal congestion, but their breathing is normal during quiet play and naps. Occasionally, when awake, they take deep breaths as if gasping. There is no runny nose, but there is white, thick discharge when the nose is cleared in the morning. There is no fever, but occasional coughs, sounding like coughs from choking. Is this a cold or physiological nasal congestion?

Doctor's answer:

It should be due to catching a cold, mainly because the nasal mucosa has been exposed to cold air. It is necessary to maintain a constant indoor temperature and prevent the indoor air from becoming too dry.,,,,,,。
