Suggest treatment for breathing difficulty and nasal congestion
Patient: Hello Doctor My child is of 2 months he has the problem in taking breathe and has some sound in the nose. we are giving nose drops otrivin but also it seems that it has not cured and also we are giving sporidex drops readymix from the past three days. Please suggest me to overcome this problem. Doctor: Hi....I will not suggest using either otrivin or sporidex ( there is no rationale of using antibiotic here). Try normal saline nasal drops or spray 4 times daily in both nares. If it is severe try to change posture during sleep; like side ways or prone. If these dosen't work seek an ENT consultation.
