Specializes in Pediatric Allergy and Asthma

Irritants: Chlorinated water may cause temporary irritation of the nasal passages. If you have a family history of allergies, your infant has a higher likelihood of developing allergies. Nasal saline drops after swimming may help to relieve his runny nose, for both causes. If the problem persists, please see your pediatrician.
