Question

Is the nasal mucus of babies usually more sticky than that of adults?

Answer

A baby’s nasal mucus may be stickier than that of adults, possibly due to the smaller size of their nasal passages, which can lead to mucus accumulating in a smaller space. Additionally, a baby’s diet may also affect the stickiness of the mucus. For example, if a baby consumes more breast milk or formula milk, the mucus may be more sticky. However, the stickiness of nasal mucus can vary from person to person, so a baby’s nasal mucus stickiness may differ from individual to individual.
