Doctor's answer:
Normal children can also have mucus secretion and experience symptoms of mucus rattling. Some children may still have mucus rattling long after a cold has improved. This will gradually disappear on its own. It generally won't affect anything. Fresh bamboo juice can be taken orally to help reduce mucus. Young children may not be able to cough up mucus, but it will be gradually expelled through the movement of cilia in the respiratory tract and swallowed, reducing it over time. However, it's important to first see a doctor to determine if it's a cold or if the inflammation hasn't been properly controlled. In that case, inflammation must be managed.Question: She doesn't have a cold... Her nose feels blocked when she's awake, making it difficult to breathe...
Expert Reply: It might be due to nasal mucus. Sometimes, you may not be able to see it. I suggest finding a soft plastic straw, washing it clean, and sucking in vegetable oil (cooking oil works too). Then, drip it into her nose. After about half an hour, the mucus will come out on its own. This primarily serves to moisturize the nasal passages. It has no side effects. You can try this first.
