Patient's question:
My baby was taken to the hospital for check-up because she always has a runny nose and nasal congestion. After the results came out, the doctor said my baby had rhinitis. After a period of treatment, the effect was not very significant, and my baby still had some nasal congestion, so we decided to try a different treatment method. Could you please tell me what are the treatment methods for children's rhinitis?Doctor's answer:
First, you can use physiological saline to rinse your nasal cavity to improve the cleaning of the nasal mucosa and remove deep bacteria. If you have significant nasal congestion, you can use oxymetazoline nasal spray and take oral medication at the same time. If there is a lot of nasal discharge, nasal negative pressure aspiration may be needed to clear the discharge. If the effect of Western medicine treatment is not good, you can take traditional Chinese medicine orally, such as using Xanthium Fruit Powder for treatment. In terms of diet, avoid greasy and rich foods and maintain regular bowel movements.
