My 1 year old daughter has a cold?

Hello, thank you for your question, I'm sorry to read about your troubles!

If the secretions are in the throat, you should encourage your child to drink, it is the only solution that works.

However, it is most often from the sinuses, which run down the back. Nasal hygiene with saline solutions such as Hydrasense, Salinex and others remains the best way to reduce nasal congestion and discharge, as well as coughing, by preventing secretions from going down the back of the throat. I suggest you do it as often as possible, more than 3 times a day, there is no maximum during the day! You will have to apply the saline solution in the nostrils, then suck the secretions with a baby fly, like the Baby Vac, or many other models available in pharmacies.

I hope I've been of some help to you, and I'm available if you have any other questions!
