Mom of a 3 yr 1 m old boy1 Year ago
Q.

Hi, my baby is 1 year 10 months. Nowadays he often gets runny nose as the weather here is very windy and cold. At night he sleeps with month open and struggles to breathe through nose due to which he keeps waking up. I'm tired of using nasal drops. Every time his pediatrician ask to use nasal drops. I don't feel good about continuous usage of nasal drops. Kindly suggest any alternate for nasal drops Or any home remedy...

A. it appears to be allergic cough/cold. they can be associated with temperature variations around the body (hot to cold or cold to hot environmental changes) which the body cannot sustain leading to cough usually at evening /night and morning. requires examination and start anti allergic medicines. meet dr and prevent such temperature variations. there is a possibility ofx starting anti allergic medicines for at least one month and the doctor will decide if the child needs inhaler therapy or nebulization. when allergies are not controlled they can lead to intermittent respiratory infections which needs other medicine
