For the ears: Gently rinse your baby's external auditory canal with the physiological serum. Use one dose for both ears. Then, wipe off the excess liquid with a compress.

If your baby's nose is very congested, you can use the PHYSIODOSE baby nasal aspirator. It allows you to effectively blow your baby's nose. The shape and soft texture of the nasal tip ensure maximum comfort for your baby. The filter of the baby nasal aspirator is equipped with a tab to be changed easily and without getting your hands dirty. PHYSIODOSE filtration technology ensures efficient nose blowing thanks to its high suction capacity. The mucus is sucked up without forcing and remains stored in the reservoir without possible return to your baby's nose.

Maintain the humidity inside your baby's nose by using appropriate washing solutions such as physiological serum, sprays based on thermal water or sea water.

Make sure your baby stays well hydrated.
