Question
My baby is three months old and often struggles to breathe. I don’t know the cause or how to solve it.
Answer
When a baby has nasal congestion before sleeping, it may be due to chronic rhinitis or enlarged adenoids. If it is chronic rhinitis, take the child for a medical diagnosis and treatment as prescribed; if it is enlarged adenoids, a medical check is also necessary, followed by further treatment planning. It is recommended that parents take their child to the hospital for a checkup to determine the cause and follow the doctor’s instructions for medication. In addition, hot towels can be applied to the nose or the child can be put to sleep on their side to alleviate nasal congestion at night.
