Prolonged symptoms may indicate an underlying issue such as allergies, sinus infections, or other conditions that need professional attention.
For immediate relief, you can try the following home remedies (under pediatrician guidance):
Saline nasal drops or spray: Helps clear nasal congestion. Steam inhalation: Use a humidifier or have the baby sit in a steamy bathroom to help loosen mucus. Warm fluids: Offer warm fluids like soup or warm water with honey (if your baby is over one year old). Gentle chest rubs: You can use baby-safe vapor rubs like Vicks Baby Rub for congestion relief. Hydration: Keep your baby well-hydrated to thin mucus.
However, if the cold persists despite using syrup and antibiotics, it may be necessary to rule out other conditions. Keep track of symptoms like fever, wheezing, or difficulty breathing and reach out to your pediatrician for further testing or alternative treatments.
