A. Yes it does. Saline drops do wonders to blocked nose, pour 2 to 3 drops in each nostril with the head of the baby tilted down to facilitate the easy flow of the saline into the nose. Allow the baby to inhale the eucalyptus oil.The oil can be also be sprinkled in the baby beddings. ensure that the baby is taking more of liquids/water Heat coconut oil and add little powdered camphor in it. After it has cooled, pour 4 to 5 drops to your palm and apply very little evenly over the chest of your baby. Take a dried turmeric piece and burn it in a candle or flame, allow your baby to inhale the smoke from the burning turmeric for few seconds. You can try applying warm mustard oil to your baby's chest and legs. You can also try by adding tulsi leaves to warm coconut oil and apply to baby's chest and legs. Cover with socks after applying. Also if your feeding your baby then Breastfeeding is one best way to cure. If baby is still uncomfortable then please check with your doctor.
