How to Deal with a 80-Day-Old Baby's Congestion from a Cold

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

The baby might have a cold due to catching a cold. The baby's stuffy nose affects breathing. If the dry nasal crust is blocked at the nostril opening, you can gently roll it out with a sterilized cotton swab. If the nasal discharge is deeper in the nasal cavity, you can gently squeeze the sides of the nose. If necessary, first apply 1-2 drops of physiological saline or cold boiled water into the nostril to help the crust gradually loosen, then use a sterilized cotton swab to roll it out.
