Author of questionMom of a 4 yr 7 m old girl4 years agoA. Hi Vishrutha,
Thank you for your response.
I was just thinking are there any other remedies too? Like you suggested for the steam- likewise.
Some people suggested to put Mustard oil in nose. Some suggested mama’s milk in nose. Some suggested to use mix of mustard oil garlic etc for the baby massage.
Any sureshot and tested remedies?

VishruthaMom of 2 children4 years agoA. Hi Momma it is very common for babies to have congested nasal passages as their nostrils are very tiny. Just use nasal spray as specifically prescribed by your child's pediatrician. Also you can stay in a steamy bathroom for some time, or give indirect steam from 2 feet away atleast and that will help to loosen the mucus. Really it is not a cold unless baby has a runny nose, so don't worry and it will get better as baby grows.
