Hi thanks for writing to Practo consult. I would just suggest , to clear nose use saline nasal drops, after giving steam inhalation to baby. For steam inhalation just heat 2 glasses of water and pour in bucket. Keep bucket by your one side. And keep baby on your lap with tummy on your lap. Hold baby firmly. Give steam for 10-15 sec only .
