Hi dr, my 3 month old baby has a blocked nose for 3 days. ive been using iliadin saline nose drops and a nose sucker to clear it but its a temporary fix. what else can i do or use to help her?

Basics: The first months are troubled by narrow nasal passages & exposure to dust, fragrences, smoke & other irritants.Baby tries to flush these out of the nose with mucous but this often ends as congestion & produces rattling with breathing. The best rx is washing out the nose with saline & suctioning the remainder. Eliminate irritants from babies environment & this will happen less.
