My child , 2yrs old has a blocked nose , no temperature , still eating and playing, what can i do for the nose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nasal wash: In toddlers the primary cause of congestion is a cold or the environment. House dust, fragrance, perfumes and cleaning products all leave scents that irritate a nose. A good nasal clean out with saline can remove much of this irritant load, but removing the offending irritants helps more in the long run.Air particle filters can also help. Cold/cough meds are worthless at that age.
