Suggest Remedy For Running Nose In A 3 Year Old
My 3 year old grandson has had a runny nose (mostly the right nostril) for several months now. Because of his age he can t blow his nose and therefore the mucus builds up in his nostril causing crusting and very large boobies . The mucus is mostly dark yellow and sometimes green. What can this be due to?

Hi... as you have told an important point about one sided nasal discharge - I suggest that it could be a - foreign body in the nostril which is a strong possibility keeping in mind the age of the kid and also the unilateral occasional purulent discharge.
I suggest you take him to the nearest emergency room or an ENT surgeon regarding this.
