Yes, you can safely use Nasoclear saline drops; applying 1 to 2 drops in each nostril before feedings or sleep will help loosen the thick mucus. Regarding the rub, ensure you are using Vicks BabyRub (specially formulated for babies three months and older) and not the adult version. Gently massage a small amount on his chest and back, but never on or near his face, nose, or mouth. If he has any trouble breathing, feeding, or develops a fever, please consult your pediatrician right away.
