A. Hello , your baby girl is 2 months old and she is having a cold then you can use saline nasal drops and no breast milk in her nose so don’t

Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years ago

A. no not safe This can occurs due to weather changes and temperature variations or simple cold and rarely infection. kindly give nasal saline drops (nasoclear /nasivion s)every three hourly and since it is a salt water/saline water it does not have any side effects and can be given again and again for nasal blockage and respiratory cough. It will dissolve mucus in nose and throat. For fever and pain give paracetamol Try to prevent temperature variations around the child and you can also give indirect steam inhalation and if there is no improvement in 2 or 3 days then meet your doctor
