A. can help. use lemon grass.
but of a good brand.
any season change can give your baby cold, cough and nasal block.
Dont just start with medicines soon. Just give nasivion or nasoclear saline drops for nose block
- give indirect steam inhalation , means steam should not go directly in baby s nose but you should put in a steamer in a closed room so that steam is in the surrounding for nasal soothing.
-If does nt get better or you feel baby has abnormal breathing sounds then see ur doc as soon as you can for auscultation n examination.
-applying any vaporubs inside baby s nose is not advised, rub on chest and back
