My little one is 2.8 years old. Thick snot started yesterday, and I've rinsed their nose more than 5 times – there was a lot. It's causing a cough, and they had a really rough night. We're booked to see the doctor tomorrow morning. What can I do to help them feel better right now? I know the runny nose is the cause, but the cough is there, and I need to ease their discomfort somehow. They're drinking warm water and juice, but nothing else. Can I use a nebulizer or cough medicine? At least for the night?

Only saline solution for inhalations, it thins mucus. We're so tired of this nighttime cough, it almost makes us vomit. I rinse my baby's nose at night, nothing comes out, but the coughing stops. You could also try a higher pillow. Rinse well before bed and use Nazivin drops.

My baby has thick snot too. I thought snot just ran, like usual, but this is thick. Is this something new, or has it always been like this?

Marisha Bukina You can tell they're thick, hard to suck out with the aspirator, even though I did drip saline solution.

Katya It didn't help, so at night I used both decongestant drops and saline with an aspirator. She coughed all night... Raising her pillow isn't an option) she sleeps like a log
