Nasal shower (saline solution nasal irrigation) is a commonly used safe method in babies, especially those over 6 months, to relieve nasal congestion. It is applied with a small rubber-tipped aspirator or special nasal shower syringe. The method allows the baby to breathe more comfortably and improves feeding and sleep quality. Using sterile saline solution thins the mucus and makes it easier to clear. It can be applied 2-3 times a day, especially 30 minutes before meals and before sleep. It is important not to overdo it and to apply it with the baby's head slightly turned to the side. The pressure applied should not be too strong to avoid increasing the risk of ear infection. If your baby is under 3 months old or has additional symptoms such as ear pain or fever, I recommend consulting your pediatrician first.
