"My baby (8 months old) has been congested for 4 days. What should I do if the nasal aspirator doesn't work?"

If the nasal aspirator is not working for your congested 8-month-old baby, you can try using the bulb syringe technique. This method is often more effective at removing nasal secretions. You can find detailed instructions on how to do this in a document provided by the Ste-Justine Hospital. It is recommended to try this technique after using the nasal aspirator to clear out the majority of the nasal secretions.
