My 2 mth old son has constant mucus build up at bedtime, it sounds like he s gagging on or getting really full and he sometimes spits up mucas +milk after being breastfed. The mucus is not always reachable with an aspirator..what should I be doing to help clear this up it s been three wks.
Hello dear! I can understand your concern. Please tell me a little more detail regarding family history of asthma and allergy.I would recommend steam inhalation before going to bed and normal saline nebulizations twice daily. Start montelukast sachet 4 mg once at night for 3 months and if there are still more secretions you can also nebulize with acetyl cysteine sachet dissolved in 10 ml of normal saline and nebulize with 1 ml of that diluted solution in 2 ml normal saline before going to bed Hope it will help. Wishing your child good health
