What to do if foreign objects enter baby's nose

Babies are innocent and lively, and they usually love to play and make noises. If parents fail to take care of them, foreign objects may enter the baby's nose. When this happens, parents should not be too anxious first. They should understand the specific reasons and what kind of foreign objects have entered the nose. If they cannot solve the problem by themselves, they must go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible and take appropriate measures in time. Let us take a brief look at it.

What to do if foreign objects enter baby's nose

1. First, adults need to judge:

1. Check whether the substance entering the child's nasal cavity is liquid or solid.

2. If it is solid, is it a soft object or a hard object?

3. Can it be removed by yourself? Will it cause harm to the child?

4. If the situation is serious, seek medical attention immediately

Second , no matter what it is, you must comfort the child. Don't let the child cry or be impatient, and don't let the child pick it with his fingers.

After the child's emotions have stabilized, let the child breathe through his mouth, block the opposite nasal cavity, let the child take a deep breath and then close his mouth, and exhale through his nose. This way, many foreign objects will be pushed out by the atmosphere. If it still doesn't work, try again.

If it is liquid, just use a dry cotton swab to drain it out. The action must be gentle, and let the child's head tilt to one side or lower his head

Again, if the foreign body can be removed by oneself and will not cause damage to the child's nasal cavity, the family can use a nasal aspirator or tweezers to suck or clamp the foreign body and remove it with the cooperation of the child.

Finally, if the foreign body has caused damage or cannot be removed by yourself, you must comfort the child and go to the hospital as soon as possible.

Adults, remember to keep an eye on your children. A moment of negligence may lead to lifelong pain.
