Why does a newborn sneeze a lot on the sixth day?

Patient's question:

Newborn six days, very prone to hiccups. When playing or moving, it sounds like having a stuffy nose. During naps, there's not much of an issue. What could be the reason?

Doctor's answer:

Always maintain fresh indoor air, frequently open windows for ventilation, and open them at least twice a day for 20 minutes each time. This can increase the risk of respiratory infections. The indoor temperature and humidity should be suitable, with a temperature of 22-25 degrees Celsius and a humidity of 50%-60%. The room should not be too dry. After feeding, burp the baby to prevent milk from accumulating in the throat, which can cause snoring, coughing, or stuffy nose.
