Why Does My Three-Month-Old Baby Feel Uncomfortable in the Nose, Yet Has No Nasal Congestion, Runny Nose, Cough, or Fever?

Question

My baby is three months old and has no nasal congestion, runny nose, cough, or fever, but she feels uncomfortable in her nose. Why is that?

Answer

Hello, based on your description, it may be a sign of a cold. Generally speaking, a cold might be accompanied by coughing, phlegm production, and fever. A fever is considered when the body temperature exceeds 37 degrees Celsius. For treatment, you can use children’s paracetamol and chlorphenamine granules. Drinking plenty of water and staying warm are very important. If necessary, consider intravenous treatment.
