1. Kids are not able to blow nose independently therefore regularly clean a nose of the baby. For this purpose dig 1-2 drops of salt solution on the basis of sea water in each nasal pass, then accurately press nose wings in order that liquid was distributed in a nasal cavity evenly. Blot the come-out allocations with a napkin or remove with special adaptation – an aspirator. Consider that when washing a nose the baby should not lie – you hold it vertically. Otherwise liquid from a nose through an acoustical pipe will get into a cavity of an ear and will cause inflammation – otitis.
2. To children is more senior at cold it is possible to use spray on the basis of sea water. To remove congestion of a nose, before food or for the night dig in to the child vasoconstrictive drops. Remember that it is impossible to use them longer than week in a row.
