Breathing and Allergy

Asked for Male, 1 year

My son has inflammation in his nose... He cannot breathe properly during sleep as he faces discomfort. Doctors said it's an allergy due to dust or weather of Middle East. I have tried nasal spray/Vicks/anti-allergy given by Pediatrician not ENT. Please advise what should I do and is this curable?

Dear Patient,

Is it possible for you to visit an ENT? Thing is taking nasal sprays and anti-allergies for the long term isn't good. Your son may have a Deviated Nasal Septum (DNS) or Polyp (unusual growth of skin in the nose) which are normal and curable conditions but a specialist needs to have a look so as to confirm this and provide you and your son with relevant medical care.
Try using two soft but firm pillows so as to elevate his neck and help him sleep more. Turn on the “Humidifier' machine at night when he sleeps.
Give him steam twice a day with Vicks in a small room full of steam, like a bathroom
