Clear nasal discharge first, then yellow nasal discharge

In daily life, we often catch colds. If the cold is not very serious, clear nasal discharge may occur. If it is not treated in time and the condition becomes serious, yellow nasal discharge will occur. There are many reasons for a runny nose due to a cold. It may be caused by catching a cold. If you have a cold, you can drink more water to promote metabolism, which can help the cold get better faster. There are many little tricks in life that can treat the situation where clear nasal discharge first leads to yellow nasal discharge.

If your child has a runny nose, it means he has caught a cold. Use half a spoonful of brown sugar and a slice of ginger to boil a cup of water. Let your child drink the water while soaking his feet in warm water. If the water is not hot, add some more clothes. Soak for 20 minutes. Then put more clothes on your child and massage the soles of his feet with your fingers. If your child is sweating, don't rush to take him off. Let him sweat slowly. Start feeding plain water. Don't rush to feed too much. Just feed frequently and encourage the baby to urinate more. Also, peel a head of garlic and add some rock sugar to boil water. Simmer for 20 minutes after boiling. Give it to your child when it is still warm. Feed slowly to encourage the child to urinate more. You can drink the water for several days in a row, 50 ml each time, on an empty stomach in the morning and before going to bed at night. If you still have a runny nose the next day, you can soak your feet again, as you did on the first day. Children should not be left exposed to the air when sleeping at night. It is just right if their hands and feet are warm. If they are too hot or too cold, the bedding should be adjusted. The water can moisten the lungs and relieve coughs, and drinking it continuously will not have any side effects on children. If you have yellow and sticky nasal discharge, it means lung heat, so do not add ginger slices to the brown sugar water.

Solution to runny nose first and then yellow runny nose:

1. Apply hot compress. Method: Use a hot, wet towel to apply hot compress on the baby's nose. Principle: When the nasal mucosa shrinks when exposed to heat, the nasal cavity will be more unobstructed and the sticky nasal mucus will be easier to hydrate and flow out. Usage suggestions: Mothers should be gentle when applying hot compress! If you find mucus in the baby's nostrils, you can first clean it with a cotton swab dipped in water; you can also slowly massage the baby's nose or both sides of the nose.

2. Hot compress with essential oils. Method: Drop some essential oil on a hot towel or handkerchief and apply it on the baby's nose; or use essential oil spray and spray it in the air. Principle: Some essential oils can be used for hot compresses to improve the swelling of the nasal mucosa and help relieve nasal congestion; essential oil sprays can improve the humidity of the air when the air is dry. Usage recommendations: Do not use too much essential oil at one time; one drop is enough, because too high a concentration of essential oil may cause chemical irritation. In addition, do not use essential oil spray indoors for too long and make sure to maintain proper air humidity.

3. Drops of breast milk. Method: The breastfeeding mother drips the expressed breast milk into the baby's nostrils. The principle may be that it produces a physical effect, because the warmth of breast milk can temporarily make the baby's nasal cavity unobstructed, but whether it is related to the composition of breast milk, there is currently no relevant medical evidence. Usage advice: This method is a folk remedy and has no scientific evidence.

4. Turn on the air conditioner. Method: When the temperature is lowered and a cold wave comes, you can turn on the heater to change the room temperature. Principle: Infants and young children are particularly sensitive to the external environment and air stimulation, so they are prone to runny nose symptoms when the temperature drops sharply. When parents find that the room temperature is low, they can turn on the heater to raise the room temperature and relieve the baby's nasal congestion and runny nose symptoms. It is recommended to use the heater at a moderate time to avoid the room temperature being too high. The heat will also make the air dry. It is recommended that mothers put a wet towel to maintain the humidity in the room.
