A member asked:
We are a way on holidays and it's really hot my baby has mild bhronilitis which is not to bad he's 5 months old can he swim in a out door pool?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not advised: At this age, the airways may constrict and plug with mucus easily. Bronchiolitis is usually self-limited, but i would advise keeping the baby out of the pool under recovered. If his nasal passages are congested use of a humidifier, nasal saline with a bulb to gently remove mucus is advised.
