What is the reason for a 7-month-old baby snoring during naps? A few days ago, they had a cold cough, but it has now improved, and they cough less. However, they are snoring during naps. The kind of help needed: What is the reason for the baby snoring while sleeping?

Doctor's answer:

Patient, hello. Previously, the baby had a cold, and now when sleeping, they snore, which should still be caused by the cold. If the nasal mucosa or pharyngeal area is congested and swollen, it will produce sounds during breathing. The cold is almost gone, but sometimes it can lead to many complications such as bronchitis, pharyngitis, etc. It should still be a bit of inflammation that hasn't fully healed. It is recommended to drink more water and take anti-inflammatory medication if necessary.
