The baby is 45 days old and has been feeling like they can't breathe through their nose.

Patient's question:

The baby is 45 days old and has been feeling like it can't breathe through its nose, with symptoms lasting for 4 days. There is no mucus in the nose, occasional coughing during sleep, and frequent hiccups.

Doctor's answer:

Advice: It might be due to nasal mucus. Sometimes, you may not be able to see the nasal mucus. I suggest you find a soft plastic straw, clean it, and suck in some vegetable oil (any kind used for cooking will do). Then, ( means "" in English, but since it's a Chinese term, I'll keep it as is) or use chopsticks to apply the vegetable oil directly into your nose. After half an hour, the nasal mucus will come out on its own. This mainly serves to moisturize. This method has no side effects. You can try it first.
