1 year old baby nasal drainage what helps?

In babies around 1 year, nasal drainage usually stems from a mild viral infection. The simplest and safest method that works is cleaning with sterile saline (saltwater) spray or drops, then using a nasal aspirator (if available) to remove excess. Especially before sleep, this cleaning helps your baby breathe comfortably. Keeping room air from drying out is also important; using a humidifier or placing a bowl of water on the radiator helps. If nasal drainage turns yellow-green and lasts longer than 10 days, fever above 38°C develops, or your baby struggles to breathe (nasal flaring, wheezing), you must consult your pediatrician.
