To help your child breathe easier, you can use saline nasal drops or sprays before bedtime to clear mucus safely. For adenoid-related congestion, a paediatrician may prescribe steroid nasal sprays, such as fluticasone or mometasone, which help reduce swelling in the adenoids and nasal passages over time. Please avoid over-the-counter decongestant drops (like oxymetazoline) for more than three days, as they can cause rebound congestion. Using a cool-mist humidifier in their room can also keep airways moist. Since adenoid issues require careful monitoring, please consult your paediatrician or an ENT specialist for a personalised treatment plan.
