The baby has nasal obstruction and runny nose in winter, so don’t rush to take medicine!

(Author’s Business Card: Liu Ziqi)

In winter, many babies will have runny noses all day long. This week, the temperature dropped again. The babies have been stuffed and runny noses all the time. Mothers are also very worried: [It is said that the medicine is three points poisonous. Do I really want to take medicine? ]

If there are no symptoms such as cough, it is simply because the cold weather stimulates the baby’s respiratory system and causes nasal obstruction and runny nose, mothers can do this at home to relieve the baby’s symptoms.

    Raise room temperature to comfortable temperature, remember to overheat with wet towel to apply nasal root when necessary can give children physiological saline atomization

What if the situation is more complicated

However, in the actual situation, the baby’s symptoms are more complicated, for example, a mother asked me this-

[My baby 4 months, cough, nasal obstruction, yellow nasal mucus for half a month, mental state is ok. The doctor prescribed cefaclor dry suspension, Ai Chang, atomization, Yi Tanjing. Has not been good, milk has phlegm sound. Does the medicine still continue to eat? If we don’t eat, how do we take care of it? ]

In this case, even if the mental state is good, but the cough, nasal obstruction and yellow nasal mucus lasting for half a month need to be highly vigilant. It is suggested to find a doctor in otolaryngology to see if the baby has complicated bacterial sinusitis or allergic rhinitis before deciding how to take medicine.

Of course, this is a relatively serious case. In daily life, if the baby continues to have clear nasal mucus for more than 2 weeks, yellow thick nasal mucus for more than 10 days, repeated nasal congestion or old nasal congestion is not good, a doctor should be consulted for reevaluation.

Nasal obstruction, runny nose, alert to medication

I am often asked if I can give the drugs mentioned by the mother above to my baby. Here is a brief analysis:

Cephalosporin antibiotics, for bacterial sinusitis, take medicine for a long time, if it is a simple nasal obstruction and runny nose, do not need to take.

Ai Chang, which can relieve sneezing, runny nose and cough, belongs to cold medicine and is not very helpful to the recovery of diseases.

Yi Tanjing contains phlegm-resolving and asthmatic ingredients. If the baby does not have too much phlegm and is not easy to cough, it is not recommended to use Yi Tanjing.

Children’s various functions are not perfect enough, and the side effects of drugs on them are even greater. Due to improper medication, about 30,000 children in our country every year can no longer hear any sound in their ears, and countless injuries such as liver and kidney functions and nervous system are caused. Parents must pay attention.

For some simple symptoms, such as colds, fever and diarrhea, it is enough to take care of the baby’s daily health as long as you know certain medication rules and prepare a small medicine cabinet at home.
