Question
My child has had a stuffed nose while sleeping at night for over a week now, but shows no symptoms during the day. They previously had tonsillitis and a high fever, which improved after intravenous treatment, but the stuffy nose issue still persists.
Answer
It is suggested to use saline nose wash to alleviate the stuffy nose problem. You can mix warm water with iodine-free salt to a concentration of approximately 0.9%, and then use a specialized nasal wash tool to clean both nostrils until the nasal cavity is clean. You can repeat this process several times to keep the nasal cavity clean and reduce the accumulation of mucus. I hope your child recovers soon!
