My 2 year old boy has not eaten in 5 days. He has a lot of greenish secretions when he sneezes and vomits because of the secretions in his throat. What should I do?

Hello Ma'am,

In such a situation, it is best to apply the technique described on pages 6 and 7 of the following document:https://www.chusj.org/getmedia/d81f7af6-a93c-4e86-9011-f523e13279a8/depliant_F-886_hygiene-nasale.pdf.aspx?ico=.pdf. At this age, you will need 5 mL of saline per nostril 5 times a day. You should see a marked improvement in these symptoms in less than 24 hours.

If this does not help restore his appetite and relieve his congestion after 3 days, I invite you to consult a physician.

Happy day,

Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist
