Question
My newborn struggles with breathing while breastfeeding, experiencing severe nasal congestion at night and in the morning. He has never been to the doctor, and I am seeking possible symptoms and home treatment methods.
Answer
Nasal congestion in newborns can be due to congenital rhinitis or other respiratory problems. It is recommended to observe them in a warm environment and avoid getting cold. Warm towels can be used to soothe the nose to help with breathing. If the congestion is severe enough to cause crying and restlessness, it may be considered to use a small amount of cold medicine, but caution should still be exercised.
