Can Vick's Baby Rub be used on a congested baby to help them breathe better?

Yes, Vicks BabyRub can be used on a congested baby to help them breathe better. However, it is important to note that saline water is key in reducing congestion in young children. Nasal irrigation can be done 3 to 6 times a day if necessary for a cold or congestion. While Vicks BabyRub made with aloe and eucalyptus can be used, it may not be as effective as nasal irrigation. It is also important to use it sparingly, as eucalyptus can sometimes irritate the skin and nasal passages of a child.
