Question
How to treat a baby’s runny nose and nasal congestion?
Answer
You can use your mouth to help the baby suck out mucus, but be careful not to let the mucus enter the baby’s brain. Medications such as ammonium chloride, Platycodon grandiflorus, and Polygala tenuifolia can be used to expectorate. Additionally, you can encourage the baby to drink more water, maintain good indoor air circulation, and use some home remedies like simmering Fritillaria thunbergii with pear to help expectorate and relieve coughing.
