Netizen: Granny Zhang, I have come to trouble you again. My son has been running a clear nose for more than 8 months. Recently, he has run a sticky nose for almost a week. He also uses physiological saline and nasal aspirator in the middle, but the child is particularly resistant. I found that he often rubs his nose from left to right. Is it rhinitis? I also had a runny nose before, but it will be better in a few days, and I won't have a sticky nose.

After a cold, the runny nose will last for some time. You can apply a warm wet towel to your nose, or use normal saline or sea salt water to wash your nose, increase the humidity in the room, let the children drink more water, and continue to observe. If it is yellow purulent nasal discharge, you should go to the hospital.
