I have done steaming as recommended by the doctor for her severally yet no change. She is always having this thick mucus that seems to be blocking her nose. And that makes her uncomfortable at night. What else can I do to help her?

What is wrong with you? This must be your first baby or you're feeling too lazy to take her to a hospital angry

She's my first child. The last time we visited the hospital, they asked us to carry on with streaming using eucalyptus oil alongside. That we have done but there seems to be little or no change

Use mouth to draw out the mucus now. At least to let her breath easy for her to sleep

If you shower her at night, stop it. You can use a wet towel to massage her instead. Massage her chest, sides and back with baby mentholatum, a little on her nose too and make sure she's not directly under and fan or AC. If symptoms persists after 2 or 3 days, take her to the hospital

The mucus isn't coming out. Just a few thick content that comes out after bathing her

We normally bath her in the morning and night (7pm) with moderate warm water. I practically had to lock both the door and window where she sleeps to avoid any entrance of air. Maybe I will still go to the hospital again

Please avoid bathing the baby's head and face with soap for now. *very important*

Use little water to wash her hair while tilting the head backwards.

You can also put menthol in hot water in a bowl and put it in the room. It helps to loosen up the mucus in the nose as well.

Continue with the prescription you were given. She'll be fine soonest.

Do thorough cleaning of your house if you have not done that already, clean up all traces of dust in the house.
Go an see a doctor.
