How can i best clear the nasal passages of a newborn?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nasal saline: Keeping the nasal passages clear of mucous with generous amounts of nasal saline & suction is your best basic rx. The saline thins the mucous so it can drain out of the narrow nasal passages & more air can move through.
