It perfectly cleanses the mucous membrane of this organ, washing out particles of dust and dried mucus, which prevents the child from breathing freely. Also, the remedy works well against viral infections, which are accompanied by abundant accumulation and separation of mucus from the nasal cavity, accelerates the healing process.

A physiological solution for washing the nose of a child can be purchased at any pharmacy, or you can prepare it yourself, because it is quite simple and the ingredients are simple. Take one glass of water boiled and incomplete teaspoon of sea salt or ordinary table salt. A small rubber syringe-aspirator or a ten-dice syringe (without needles) will help to more efficiently rinse and clean a small spout.

For the prevention of various viral diseases, it is not unhealthy to regularly dig in the saline solution, to wash the nose that usually serves, just a couple of drops each day.

And how to wash a spout for a small child? The principle of using the "saline solution for washing the nose" is as follows:

Put your baby on the barrel, gently, so as not to damage the nasal mucosa, insert shallowly into the nostril, which was on top of an aspirator or a ten-syringe (without a needle, of course), and inject the solution until the water pours back.

Do exactly the same things with the other nostril neatly. Do not wash your nose by holding the baby lying on your back! This threatens to get the solution into the lungs, as a result of which there may be a disease such as bronchitis, pneumonia, etc. If you do not put the baby on the barrel and do not let the water flow through the spout, it can drift far into the middle ear, resulting in a high risk of otitis media. Best of all, if during all the manipulations with the newborn you will be helped by someone from the home, holding the baby on its side and securely supporting its head to avoid its sudden movements, as a result of which it can injure the mucous spout about the syringe or syringe.

So you learned how to apply saline to wash your nose. By the way, this is regularly recommended not only to children, but also to adults, because we are also being attacked by an aggressive environment. Washing to adults is done a little differently - you do not need to lie down, you just need to clean your nose, quickly pour the solution with a pear or syringe into one nostril, tilt your head and allow the fluid to flow out completely. Do the same thing in relation to the other nostril.

Regular washing of the nasal cavity for preventive purposes should become a habit for every person, as well as brushing your teeth or washing in the morning. And with viral infections, a cold or allergic rhinitis, these actions will significantly accelerate the healing process!
