Question
Why does my newborn experience nasal congestion during nighttime sleep?
Answer
In newborns, nasal congestion may be caused by hypertrophied turbinates, enlarged tonsils, or other nasal diseases. If symptoms persist or worsen, it is recommended to check for hypertrophied turbinates or other abnormalities that may affect breathing. For pediatric otorhinolaryngological diseases, it is advisable to seek medical attention early and receive treatment under a doctor’s guidance. In daily life, attention should be paid to diet and fluid intake, hoping the child can recover quickly.
