Suggest Remedies For A Stuffed Nose In A Baby
My son is a week shy of 6 months old. He has a very stuffed nose, after I get all the visible stuff out he still is clogged and can t sleep. I also have a humidifier on next to his crib. What can I do?

Hi,
Rather than a humidifier which sometimes causes rebound nasal congestion, I suggest you use only saline nasal drops 4 or 6 times per day on as and when required basis, please.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
