Question
What should I do if my child has a long-term runny nose but does not have a fever or high fever?
Answer
A long-term runny nose can be a sign of discomfort. If you suspect it’s due to allergies, you can try allergy medications, but if there’s no improvement, it’s advisable to consult a doctor to rule out other potential conditions, such as sinusitis. Additionally, deficiencies in vitamins A and B may also cause runny nose, and supplementing these vitamins may be helpful. For runny nose caused by allergies, avoiding allergens or using antiallergy medications may be an effective treatment. If there’s a foreign object in the nasal cavity, it should be removed promptly by a medical professional.
