I did myself, bought saline and the tube spray to one side nasal and the mucus came out easily. I learnt this when my baby was hospitalised for bronchiolitis at 4mths. The episode came again twice and both times I did the same home remedy and it went well cos doct told me try to avoid giving medicines at such a young age. It looks painful but to see my baby relieved from phlegm and mucus I knew it was all gonna be well. Not advisable to give panadol at all. If fever, do sponge down religiously on whole body till cool down.
