Question
A six-month-old baby is experiencing nasal blockage while breastfeeding and has a cough during sleep at night. How should this situation be handled?
Answer
The baby may have symptoms such as mucus dripping back, snoring during deep sleep, mouth breathing, or coughing with phlegm. Considering the possibility of rhinitis, has there been a recent cold? It is usually recommended to take children’s paracetamol and chlorphenamine capsules, along with Nasal Comfort oral solution. If necessary, a consultation with an otolaryngology clinic can be arranged.
