Are there any medications over the counter for an infants stuffy nose?

First off WARNING from Medicine PLUS website : nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003... Newborn infants must breathe through the nose. Nasal congestion in an infant's first few months of life can interfere with nursing, and in rare cases can cause serious breathing problems. Nasal congestion in older children and adolescents is usually just an annoyance, but it can cause other difficulties.

Nasal congestion can interfere with the ears, hearing, and speech development. Significant congestion may interfere with sleep. When nasal stuffiness is just on one side, the child may have inserted something into the nose.

They do offer suggestions at the website above.

Saline nasal sprays are simply salt water in a convenient applicator — no medications or drugs are included. The water will soothe the inflammation in your nose, as well as flushing out any mucus or bacteria. Buy the spray, or make your own.

You can purchase sterile saline sprays at most drug stores.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
