Hi Lynz, the trick is that you need to use infant iliadin after you flush the nose. This is to dry the mucous so that it doesn’t keep running. I find the nasal aspirator does a good job too. Oh for iliadin, you can only use it five days in a row, morning and night. Then give it a rest for 3 days.

Flus are the worst for babies I understand. Okay so when my babies get runny nose, I go a little nuts. I use peppermint and eucalyptus EO in the room, rub eucalyptus oil on their feet and cover with socks, and I put some olbas oil on the their clothes. That might help. Occasionally I suction the mucous out but try not to overdo it. The fluctuating weather isn’t helping too... Take care okay?

could it be phlegm in lungs? my boys kanna before and pd gave nebuliser to get. milk intake became better

my pd prescribed some ointment for the nose also for stuffy nose. my 2 yo n 5 mths old boy inherit my sinus prob... so sterimar, medicated nasal spray, ointment from pd and various flu med always on standby at home.

We normally nasal spray the nose then nose frida to the rescue! Nose frida is amazing!

Go and buy the normal saline and put a few drops into baby nose every 2-3 hourly!

Went to PD also, and gave us nasal spray. Did u try nasal spray?
