A member asked:

My 7 week old baby girl is sneezing, slightly blocked nose and occasionally coughing she does not have a fever. i have recently had the flu but my hubby took over from me as to not make her sick. should i take her to the doctor ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nasal wash: At 7 weeks the primary cause of congestion and cough is the environment. House dust, fragrance, perfumes and cleaning products all leave scents that irritate a babies 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.If she is not otherwise sickly you can monitor this at home.
