What Does Noisy Breathing In A Baby Indicate?
Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...
My baby girl is 6months old. She has noisy breathing in the sense that you can hear some catarrh like sound when she breathes. But she doesn't have catarrh, no runny nose, no fever, no loss of appetite. Please what do you think is the problem?

Dear Parent,
Noisy breathing in a well child is usually caused by any obstruction to airflow in the respiratory tract like nose, soundpipe and windpipe. A common cause of noisy breathing in a well child is nose block. However, I suggest that you consult a pediatrician who can examine your baby and rule out other possible causes.
