Question
The baby has just been born for a few days, and recently, for some unknown reason, the baby keeps scratching their ears. How should the nasal mucosa of a 45-day-old baby be handled?
Answer
Based on your description, the baby’s condition may be due to catching a cold or feeling chilled. Parents can try cleaning the baby’s nasal cavity with water and providing careful care and attention. At the same time, it is recommended to supplement the baby’s nutrition with vitamins and trace elements to enhance the baby’s immunity. In cases of adenoid hypertrophy, medication often cannot cure it as it is caused by long-term inflammation stimulation. This condition is prone to recurrence, with obvious snoring at night and may affect the baby’s concentration and academic performance. Therefore, for cases with longer duration or more severe symptoms, it is suggested to consider surgical treatment as soon as possible.
