How to wash my baby’s nose?

1. Lay down your baby with a high head or face up position. If your baby resists, you might need to wrap them.
2. The saline solution should be warmed to a temperature appropriate to the nasal mucosa. (Test with the back of the hand.)
3. Put the saline solution in a clean container. Retrieve a small amount a time, about 5 ccs.
4. Insert the tip of the syringe into the nostril. Gently inject the salt water to clear the nasal mucosa.
5. In young children who don’t know how to blow the nose, use a syringe ball.
6. Nasal wash should be done before meals to prevent aspiration.
7. If the baby is just fed, wait for 1-2 hours before washing the nose.
