A. For a 25-day-old baby with a blocked nose, here are some remedies you can try: Home Remedies: 1. Saline Nasal Drops: Use saline drops specifically made for infants to help loosen mucus. You can apply 1-2 drops in each nostril. 2. Nasal Aspirator: After using saline drops, gently use a bulb syringe or nasal aspirator to clear the mucus from the nose. 3. Steam Inhalation: Sit with your baby in a bathroom with a hot shower running to create steam. This can help relieve nasal congestion. 4. Elevate Head During Sleep: Slightly elevate the head of the crib mattress to help with breathing while sleeping, but ensure it’s safe and doesn’t pose a risk of rolling. 5. Humidifier: Use a cool-mist humidifier in the baby’s room to add moisture to the air, which can help relieve congestion. When to Consult a Doctor: If the blockage persists or worsens. If your baby has difficulty breathing, is unusually irritable, or has a fever. If you notice any signs of dehydration or feeding difficulties. Always consult your pediatrician if you’re unsure about any symptoms or treatments.
