Question
How to effectively treat baby’s rhinitis?
Answer
The treatment methods for different types of rhinitis vary. Allergic rhinitis can be effectively treated with antihistamines. For sinusitis, antibiotics are used, supplemented with traditional Chinese medicine. Nasal congestion caused by rhinitis may lead to a decrease in the oxygen intake for the baby, which could potentially affect their growth and development in the long run. Parents should enhance the baby’s nutrition and maintain a balanced diet. Although nasal strips are a physical method and are external adhesive patches without medication ingredients, the adhesive in the strips may cause skin allergies, and they may also lead to enlarged pores or damage the baby’s skin.
