A member asked:

If your new born has a cold must you see a dr? is a cold dangerous for a new born?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

More likely irritant: Nasal congestion at that age is most often due to exposure to fragrance, dust, smoke or other odors.This often causes swelling inside the nose & mucous buildup. Saline nose wash used in liberal amounts will often clear this up. If there is RSV active in your region this might be an issue & you should have your doc see the kid if so.
