Stuffy Nose - 15 Week Old Infant

Hi Moms, My 15 week old son has a persistant stuffy nose without any other symptoms. I have treated him with saline drops, ran a humidifier at in his room and have recently started using Vicks Baby Rub first thing in the morning and last thing before I put him to bed. Any other suggestions for soothing his poor little nose? Thanks!

Saline Drops vs Sinus Wash for 2 Yr Old

What is the difference between using saline drops/ "saline stream" (for my 2 yr old) (Like "ocean brand") and using a "sinus wash" (like Sinucleanse). People have recommended both to me. Are they the same thing? he gets a lot of runny noses and congestion (doc says from allergies). And I want to try a natural approach for treating his symptoms. Thanks in advance!

8 Mo Old with Sniffles and No Appetite

Is he refusing to eat due to a sore throat. I've been giving him saline drops a...
