A member asked:
People have told me to suck/blow the snot out my daughter nose....is it safe and how do i do it.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Why?: Do that on your own nose. You can use warm saline on your daughter, but hopefully she's old enough to control her own nose. If not, check with your pediatrician about how to do it gently and safely.
