A. they are respiratory secretions which is present in the narrow respiratory tract of the child. the sound of ghar... ghar.. is present when air passes over these secretions in the narrow respiratory tract. if the respiratory rate of the child is within normal limits and the child is not having any other complaints do not worry about the sound which is present due to respiratory secretions. if you feel that the child is having some difficulty in breathing you can always give nasalg saline drops in the nasal cavity which will wash away the mucus present in the nasal cavity as well as the respiratory tract. the problem improve with increasing age of the child when there is broadening of the respiratory tract . ff

A. Yes so sometimes I could be a congestion in the chest also that is why you can hear that sound like Kakkar’s kind of a sound people can hear like that so I would recommend you to check with your paediatrician on the issue because running nose can also be associated with congestion in the chest
