OK so my 6 month old son is congested but its not nasal...its more in his chested which makes him cough! He's been congested b4 but it was all n the nose so I used saline drops. I use the humidifer everyday...its been about 3 days that he's been congested. Do u guys know of anything else I can do for him or give him!
I just hate it for the poor little fella :-(
We'ln take any advise.....
Re: Congestion
Welcome!
Poor fella! Unfortunately, there's not really anything, medicine-wise, you can give him at his age. The humidifier should help. Also, I bought some Vicks liquid that you can put in the water in a humidifier (sold with the humidifiers at Target) that seemed to help my DD when she had something like that. Also, maybe try the Vicks baby chest rub?
If he's wheezy, you'd definitely want to give the pedi a call to make sure it's not RSV. They might be able to give him a nebulizer treatment, or something like that at the pedi's office.
Good luck--I hope he's feeling better soon!
Oh no, that stinks. How did they test him for it? Is it a finger prick? I think DD may have it, so I am worried!
