Question

What are effective treatment methods for pediatric rhinitis? Specifically, are there suitable treatments for children when dealing with the nasal root and mucosa?

Answer

It is recommended that children immerse their entire nose in a basin of cold water upon waking up each morning, gently inhale, allowing the water to fully contact the nasal root and mucosa. During this process, it is important to avoid exerting too much force and to ensure the child’s safety to prevent choking on water. This method should be consistent over time, aiming to enhance the adaptability of the nasal mucosa to allergic rhinitis caused by seasonal and temperature changes, while also effectively boosting immunity against colds. Initial attempts may result in symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose, and soreness, but with time, these symptoms will gradually diminish.
