Suggest Treatment For Releaving Nasal Congestion In Infant.

I have a 1 month old girl and she seems to snore when she's awake but breathes normally while she's asleep. I use a bulb suction a couple times and took out a greenish somewhat hard mucus. It's been 2 days since her nasal congestion started. Any suggestions

For nasal congestion , can use decongestive oral drops . Hope I have answered your query . For further questions please contact .
