Question
A baby is 15 days old and has difficulty breathing while sleeping. There are nasal mucus blocks deep in the nostrils, and the baby tends to wake up easily during sleep. How should this be handled?
Answer
Based on the description, the baby may be suffering from nasal congestion. It is recommended to use a soft nasal syringe to clear the mucus, ensuring a quiet sleeping environment. The mother can stay nearby to provide comfort and security. Pay attention to proper feeding, timely vaccination, and regular health check-ups. The baby’s tendency to wake up easily during sleep may be due to calcium deficiency or difficulty breathing.
