Question
I gave birth to my baby in the hospital and stayed for two days before coming home. Now the baby is already a month old, and I’ve noticed nasal congestion when breastfeeding. I want to know how to handle the baby’s nasal congestion?
Answer
If your baby’s nose is a bit blocked, it might be due to a cold. In this case, if the congestion is not severe or there are no other discomforts, you can continue to observe. You can massage the pressure points on both sides of the baby’s nose, which can help improve the treatment effect. Additionally, pay attention to whether the baby has a fever or cough. If so, it is advisable to go to the hospital for a routine blood test to understand if there is an increase in infection indicators.
