Question

Can children with a stuffy nose drink honey water?

Answer

If a baby’s stuffy nose is caused by a cold, honey ginger water should not be given. It is necessary to determine if it is due to wind-cold syndrome. In the case of wind-cold syndrome, honey ginger water can be consumed. For respiratory infections, it is advisable to take cold medicine, Huotong granules, ambroxol syrup, and antibiotics for anti-inflammatory treatment.
