Nose irritation after morning/noon naps
My daughter has a lot of nose irritation after naps. She wakes up with either blocked or irritating nose and as soon as she wakes she sneezes a lot atleast 7-10 times until steam touches her nose. This is major in winter. I  give her steam after she wakes up every time post which she gradually comes down. And during the day shes fine until the next nap time. Her sneeze has transparent colour mucus. Can I use nacl injection water in nebuliser often?

Yes you can use that is indirect salt water inhalation. but the important thing is you have to prevent temperature variations as well as weather changes around the child and the transition from warm to cold and cold to warm should not be drastic because it will then lead to allergic cough and cold
