My 2-year-old child has a stuffy nose, difficulty breathing, and itching on the back of the neck. What treatment should be given?
A stuffy nose, difficulty breathing, and itching on the back of the neck in a 2-year-old may be due to a cold or allergy. You can use saline nasal drops, keep the child well hydrated, and try gentle steam inhalation. Since your child is having difficulty breathing, it is important to consult a paediatrician promptly to rule out infections or allergies and get proper treatment. Avoid giving adult medicines.
