A member asked:
What should i do with baby whom is congested but no temperature?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Use nasal saline: Infants have short necks & don't usually mouth breath to bypass a congested nose until they are 5-6m. That makes their nose their dominant air source. Using a copious amount of nasal saline to wash out dust & debris is important when they sound congested.
