My 20m son has a phlegmy cough, leaky nose, no fever now. he coughs off and on at night. what can be done to ease it? does baby rub ointment help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
URI: Sucking out secretions from the nose, after spraying some salt water in the nose so the child can breath through the nose, which can get better with a vaporizer; along with proper hydration, sleeping somewhat propped up helps.
